Thanks doug But I am not sure if it was the answer. To be more specific, my subjects did two different tasks within one fmri run. I want to see their functional connectivity during task 1 and task 2 separately.

If it was resting state, I didn't need to separate my data and a simple fcseed-config like below was enough:

fcseed-config -roi Labels/rh.V1  -fcname mean.R_V1.dat -fsd rest -mean -cfg CFG_Files/mean.R_V1.config

But now, I don't know how to modify my fcseed-config to say I have had two conditions (task) within one run and I need to measure the seed for each task separately.

Hi Shahin, you can do seed-based analysis. In principle you can do this with task data, you just need to adjust your conclusions accordingly. There is no easy to way to only do the analysis on the resting epochs of a blocked design, if that is what you mean.

Hi,

   I was wondering if we can compare "functional connectivity" between blocks within a run as we do for BOLD signal using freesurfer. Current documentation of freesurfer is for resting state and does not consider conditions that experiment is Blocked Design.

Similar question has been asked previous but nobody answered (see the link below)
