This repository was initially created on 18-05-2022 for an internship in the Section of Cognitive Psychology at the Department of Psychology at the University of Bonn from 15-03-2022 to 15-06-2022.
It contains scripts for analysis of behavioral and hemodynamic data of subjects1 who performed a Procedural Learning2 task and an Object Location Association3 task.

Make sure that all required toolboxes and software are installed and running. For help, refer to the respective website and documentation (see also links above).
When downloading the code, it is recommended to move the folder containing the data of subjects (not available here) adjacent to the analysis_script folder:
├───analysis_script
│ ├───behavioral
│ │ ├───OLA
│ │ └───PL
│ ├───data
│ │ └───ROIs
│ │ ├───OLA
│ │ └───PL
│ ├───fmri
│ │ ├───OLA
│ │ ├───PL
│ │ └───preprocessing
│ ├───results (created by scripts)
│ │ ├───behavioral
│ │ └───[optionally add a batch file to fmri results folder here]
│ └───utils
│ └───...
└───DATA
├───Additional Logfiles
├───Behavioral
├───Subjects
└───results
The DATA
folder should contain all additional logfiles, behavioral and subject fmri data. A results
folder will be generated here for the fmri results by the analysis script.
