The MultiTaskBattery toolbox is live: 20+ implemented tasks built on PsychoPy, objected-oriented design and a battery optimizer built in! Docs: multitaskbattery.readthedocs.io Github: github.com/DiedrichsenLab… with @carobellum @jkderrick028 @DiedrichsenJorn 🙌

How you arrange your tasks also matters more than you’d think. Interspersing all tasks in every run lets you compute all contrasts within-run and leverage resting baselines across runs. Grouped designs force noisier between-run comparisons.

You have 10 minutes of task fMRI to map functional brain regions in an individual. Three decisions matter: How do you localize regions? Which tasks do you include? How do you arrange tasks in your experiment? Here, we tackle all three! Preprint👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.648…
