Then, calculate shift-predictors for shift = 2:
Repeat Steps 1 through 4 with interval [t1a, t1b] in Step 1 and interval [t3a, t3b] in Step 2. That is,
shift trials by 2.
...
And, finally, calculate shift-predictors for shift = Number_of_shifts specified in the shift-predictor
options.
More on Time Intervals
These time intervals can be used in other analyses in NeuroExplorer to analyze spikes only from
those intervals.
For example, you may have a pre-drug period in the experiment (say, from 0 to 600 seconds) and
want to analyze the spikes from this pre-drug time period.
To do this, you create a new "interval variable" (let's call it "PreDrug") that contains only one interval
(0., 600.) (press "New Intervals!" button to create a new interval variable).
Then you can calculate, for example, the autocorrelograms for the spikes in the pre-drug period by
specifying PreDrug as an "interval filter" in the Data Selection page of the Autocorrelogram
parameters dialog.
