Hi all,
I'm trying to run a simple event-related analysis, in which the conditions are determined based on subject's performance. It is possible that some of the predicted conditions do not appear in the paradigm file (mostly because the subject performs well). In these cases, do I need to renumber the conditions (I don't prefer this since I want the condition codes to be consistent across subjects) ? If I run the design with some conditions missing I get the following error. I checked the created Xtmp.mat, and XtX matrix contains NaNs in the columns corresponding to the conditions that don't appear in the paradigm file. Does anyone know a robust solution to this problem?
Many thanks! -Hamdi
