Session Schedule

Each subject follows a canonical session schedule. Minor deviations are expected (e.g., a localizer task collected in a different session than planned).

Session(s) Phase Purpose
ses-01 Baseline Anatomical (T1w, T2w), diffusion (DWI), resting-state fMRI
ses-02, ses-03 Localizers Functional localizer tasks (PRF, fLoc, auditory, tonotopy). No anatomy.
ses-04 to ses-18 Trial-Based (TB) Repeated cued-recall memory paradigm: encoding, retrieval, math, resting
ses-19 to ses-28 Naturalistic (NAT) Repeated naturalistic memory paradigm: encoding, retrieval, math, resting
ses-28 Anatomy repeat Also includes a second anatomical + DWI acquisition
ses-29 Behavioral only Out-of-scanner behavioral session (no imaging)
ses-30 Final memory Final memory tests with unique task IDs (TBD), plus makeup localizers if needed

Known Deviations from Canonical Schedule

  • Localizer tasks (ses-02/ses-03) are sometimes swapped across subjects (e.g., auditory in ses-02 for one subject but ses-03 for another).
  • Session 30 may include localizer tasks that were missed earlier.
  • Run counts for some tasks vary across subjects (e.g., floc: 3-6 runs; tone: 1-2 runs).
  • Future subjects may have similar minor deviations.
