I think I figured it out but I want to double check. I am generating group-average map for my subjects using isxconcat-sess command which generates ces maps for each time frame. I think these maps are what I wanted. Right? If you still have other solutions that you think may generate more reliable results, I am eager to know. For instance, is there anyway to fit a model as we do for spmhrf or fslhrf, but just for the negative peak?

yes, that is what you want. The only other way that comes to mind is to model each event type as two event types one delayed relative to the other. Then model the responseto each as a gamma. If the delay is right, then the first gamma should model the main positive response and the second gamma will model the negative response. both will be independent from the other.

Sorry that I keep on asking questions but I want to know if using a model can significantly increase the chance of getting a significant response. As far as I see for the positive peak, when I use a model (e.g. gamma model or spmhrf), I see a more significant response compared to when I use the FIR model. Is it correct? If true, then the same might be correct for the negative peak.
P.S.: To be more clear, I am talking about the response maps relative to the baseline. On Apr 10, 2013 6:46 PM, "Douglas N Greve" greve@nmr.mgh.harvard.edu wrote:

Hi Doug, Sorry to follow this topic with a delay but we tried to model BOLD signal undershoot with a gamma function and we failed. The problem is, gamma function generates positive values and we can NOT use "inverse gamma function" (or otherfunction similar to that) as a part of mkanalysis-sess (for modeling BOLD signal undershoot). We even used matlab gammafit to estimate parameters and it said that values should be positive otherwise gammafit function fails. Do you have any suggestion?

What do you mean the gamma function generates positive values? It will create a regressor with a positive-going HRF. However, the regression coefficient can be negative which would invert the shape. The reg coef is fit to the data, so the data will tell you whether there is an undershoot or not. doug
