That is probably why you observe a different spectrum compared to your software. You may change the default to use 100% in the graphic interface or on the Matlab command line. Another reason could be that the parameters for computing the spectrum (window size, padding, and overlap between windows) are different.</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div><br></div><div>Arno</div><div><br></div><div>ps: there was a bug a couple of years ago where the spectrum function was only using the first trial. This has been fixed in 2009 in all version including EEGLAB 6.03b.</div><div><br><div><div>On Nov 4, 2010, at 4:20 AM, Jobst Beatrice wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; font-size: medium; "><div lang="DE-AT" link="blue" vlink="purple"><div class="WordSection1" style="page: WordSection1; "><div style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; "><span lang="EN-US">Dear All,<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; "><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; "><span lang="EN-US">I have a question about plotting the activity power spectrum (frequency vs. power) with the function “pop_prop()”:<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0cm; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; "><span lang="EN-US">I have a dataset, which has already been examined with another software, and now I want to compare the results with EEGLab.
