However, we did also a number of analyses were data from one or two sessions were used for training, whereas data from the other session(s) were used for testing.
As an additional test of signal stability, we performed decoding analyses using data from one or two sessions for training and used the data from the other session(s) for testing.
In one session, subjects were exposed to filtered air pumped into the exposure chamber for 1 hr (control session); in the other session, subjects were exposed for 1 hr to air from the swine house that had been diluted with uncontaminated air (experimental session).
"The other session is strictly for readings of scripts read by the actors who are cast in the roles".
Except for the first session, the other sessions share the same procedures, including: homework review and agenda development (10 minutes), relaxation and focusing on reminiscence (5 minutes), contact work (50 minutes), feedback to clients (15 minutes), assignment of homework (5 minutes), feedback to therapist and questions (5 minutes).
Subjects were exposed to two stimulus sessions but in two subjects the second session was not used, for the following reasons: one subject fell asleep during the second session while for the other the second session was invalid due to technical reasons.
In this study hemodialysis patients with a newly inserted permanent dialysis catheter are randomised to receive rt-PA 1 mg per catheter lumen once per week, with heparin 5,000 units per ml used as a locking solution for the other two dialysis sessions, or heparin 5,000 units per ml (luminal volume) after each dialysis session.
The intervention will be to lock the catheter with rt-PA at a dose of 1 mg per lumen, once per week, with unfractionated heparin 5,000 units per ml used as a locking solution for the other two dialysis sessions.
As the data were derived from a within-subject cross-over design (where half of the subjects received the placebo tablet in the first session, while the placebo session for the other half of subjects was the second experimental session), we additionally tested for an effect of session order by adding this variable as a between-subject factor to the ANOVA.
The order of the modalities was interleaved within sessions (i.e., a block of one modality was followed by a block of the other modality) and counterbalanced across participants (i.e., for two participants, the session started with an auditory block, whereas for the other two participants, the session started with a visual block).
