**ShowPlay Reference Manual, Chapter 5 (OutputFiles): pdigmfile**
===== Paradigm(pdigm) File -- ShowPlay paradigm output file =====

The paradigm (pdigm) file contains ALL the data from a stimulus presentation run. The data are stored in record numbers with names corresponding to their content. The pdigm file contains the ppf file, the response times, nominal and actual start times of stimuli, cardiac and respiratory oscillations, the showplay.out file, and the stimulus ID codes, among other things. There are two ways to look at the pdigm file:

  * [[jvs:cigal:showplay:manual:chapter5:showpdigm|Show pdigm]]
  * [[jvs:cigal:showplay:manual:chapter5:dmread|dmread]]


If a copy of what is displayed in a separate text file is desired, you may also redirect the output of dmread. [[jvs:cigal:showplay:manual:chapter5:printrec|Print record]]

  * [[jvs:cigal:showplay:manual:chapter5|Back to Output Files]]
