Highlight Results, Don't Hide Them: Enhance interpretation, reduce biases and improve reproducibility
by Paul A Taylor, Richard C Reynolds, Vince Calhoun, Javier Gonzalez-Castillo, Daniel A Handwerker, Peter A Bandettini, Amanda F Mejia, Gang Chen (2023)
Neuroimage 274:120138. doi: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2023.120138

The input data comes from the NARPS project (Botvinik-Nezer et al., 2020):
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7771346/
This paper uses both the raw, unprocessed data as well as the participating teams' results, which were uploaded to NeuroVault (see the same paper for those details).


Essentially all scripts here use AFNI; one also uses FreeSurfer.

The scripts_biowulf directory contains the main processing scripts, including:

  • Checking the data
  • Estimating nonlinear alignment to template space and skullstripping with @SSwarper
  • Full FMRI time series processing through regression modeling and QC generation with afni_proc.py
  • Group level modeling: both voxelwise (with cluster calcs) and ROI-based (using RBA, in particular)

... and more.

The scripts_suppl_proc_vox directory contains supplementary scripts for making images of the above-processed data, mainly for figure generation.

The scripts_suppl_proc_teams directory contains scripts for processing the group-level results of the original participating Teams in the NARPS project. Those public datasets were downloaded from NeuroVault. The scripts make a lot of images and perform some simple similarity analyses.
