Research Ethics
What is privacy?
This the shape of the button that "runs" a script in Psychopy.
False. It measures relative concentrations - that's why we always need a baseline.
This is the color that will show during optimization in Aurora if the channel has a "good" signal.
What is green?
This principle requires participants to be told of the procedures, risks, and benefits, before volunteering to be in a study.
What is informed consent?
This tools allows you to repeat a section of code multiple times.
What is a loop?
This step in the process accounts for the fact that the optode might shift position in relation to the participants scalp.
What is motion correction?
To ensure that the cap is centered laterally, this point on the cap should be centered between the two ears.
What is Cz?
These are example of vulnerable populations who require enhanced protections.
Who are children, incarcerated individuals, anyone who's decision making ability is currently impaired, those who may face undue pressure from financial compensation...
This ability is symoblized by this component.
What is play sounds?
The peak of this canonical response to neural activity is often considered the outcome measure in fNIRS studies.
What is Hemodynamic Response Function (HRF)?
To ensure that the cap is centered in the anterior-posterior direction, one should measure between these two points.
What are the naison (between the eyebrows) and the inion (bony bump at the back of the skull)?
This is the committee at a research institution that decides if research protocols meet ethical standards.
What is the Institutional Research Board (IRB)?
This ability is symbolized by this component (component A).
What is the ability to get keyboard responses from the participant?
These two functions can allow you to average the hemodynamic response across trials.
What are Block Average and GLM?
This symbol, also historically found on DVRs, begins the recording in Aurora.
What is a red circle?
This report was published in 1979 defining 3 major ethical principles for human subjects research.
What is the Belmont Report
These are the three ways to determine when in a routine a text cue appears.
This equation is implemented to convert optical density to hemoglobin changes.
Modified Beer-Lambert Law
This part of the Psychopy code needs to run BEFORE starting the recording in Aurora to ensure that events are recorded in the fNIRS data.
What is Lab Streaming Layer (LSL)?
