The BAASIS® assesses relevant dimensions of immunosuppressive drug use, i.e. taking adherence, timing adherence, drug holidays and dose reduction in a recording fixed time of the last four weeks.
Finally the paper uses model network results to illustrate a method of designing fixed time signal timings to meet different scenarios.
75% of trials in "variable outcome timing" and "fixed outcome timing" blocks were "action + tone" trials, in which participants' button presses were followed by one of two sine wave tones (750 Hz or 800 Hz, 100 ms duration).
Following previous studies on binding of subjective action time (Haggard et al., 2002), we subtracted the mean time judgement error in "baseline" blocks from mean time judgement errors in "variable outcome timing" and "fixed outcome timing" blocks for each participant.
In the first step, we fixed the timing parameters of the canonical double-gamma HRF (time-to-peak for the positive and negative gamma functions, 6 s and 16 s, respectively) and fitted the GLM using ordinary least squares.
Furthermore, there was no significant effect of "outcome timing variability" on pitch discrimination sensitivity (mean d′: 2.52 ("fixed outcome timing") and 2.34 ("variable outcome timing"), t14 = 1.22, p = .24).24
Tones followed the button presses either after a fixed delay of 250 ms (in "fixed outcome timing" blocks) or after a variable delay of either 50 ms, 250 ms or 450 ms (with equal probabilities) (in "variable outcome timing" blocks).
Any difference in retrospective binding between conditions of variable and fixed outcome timing would reflect an influence of context, rather than any bottom-up interference with action awareness.
In particular, the effects of the cetane number and fuel volatility on combustion and emissions were investigated under fixed injection timing and fixed ignition timing conditions, respectively.
