[Eeglablist] ERSP parameters in STUDY

[Baris Demiral]

Thank you Bradley for your comments,
I did try doing it without baselining, and still the same. My experience now
tells me:
1- Baselining does not have any effect on observable frequencies in ersp
analysis
2- cycles [] option and the epoch length have the major effects, such that
you need to specify smaller wavelets (as in cycle [1 0.2] or DFT option
cycle[0]) if you need to look at the smaller frequencies, but this may not
show the whole epoch (time window is smaller in ersp window) and cuts out
the first and the last portion of the original epochs.

My question to you all is: how can we keep the time range same as long as
the epoch length for the lower frequencies? Is the wavelet overlapping has
anything to do with that? How do we set this?I know the factor in cycles [x
(factor)] determines the increments of the cycles as we go up in the
frequency dimension, but which parameter assigns the wavelet overlap?
