Planning a pilot
• Book a timeslot in Calpendo and put in the description box, Pilot.
• Tinka will be present during a pilot. Therefore you can book a Pilot on a Thursday or Friday between 08.00-18.00.

• Proper interface with the response buttons. More information can be found on the wiki Neurowiki:General stimulus setup.
• You should know which and how many sequences you want to run (T1, EPI, DTI), including duration in seconds of the paradigm. Neurowiki:Sequences
• You should know whether or not you want to use the PPU and resp.
• There must be a working fmriProjects folder or sFTP folder on BigBrother (see 4).
Estimate the time needed for one participant
• Without PPU and Resp measurements, duration of the scans + 10 minutes.
• With PPU and Resp measurements, duration of the scans + 15 minutes.
• With GSR or EMG measurements, duration of the scans + 20 minutes.
• With eye tracker measurements, duration of the scans + 20 minutes.

• at least 3 hours
• or consecutive to another booking
• or starting at 9h or 18h
• or finishing at 18h.
In Calpendo you can find free time slots and timeslots where scanning assistance is available.
Booking a scanning assistant outside these hours is possible, make sure to book it well in advance and notice Tinka by email.
Participant information
