[Eeglablist] Can I do ERSP for epochs of 1.25 sec duration?

If my experimental events occur frequently (every 1.25 seconds) can I legitimately do ERSP time/frequency analysis?

Background: A subject is repeatedly (90 trials) primed to perform a motor movement every 1.25 sec, where the movement takes about 750 msec to complete.  I realize that typically we use -1s to +2s for time/freq analysis because event-related changes in the EEG need time to develop and to recover.  In this situation can I get away with using -0.25s to 0 for my baseline and 0 to +1s for my post-event activity?

If the eeglablist feels that I can’t do ERSP, I can still perform ICA, correct?  The ideal situation would be to perform ICA and then feed the independent components into timef.

Thank you,
