Creating a taskname is one of the simplest way to link behavioral files to a functional dataset, and ideal for scans that have a single comparison (as in, activity versus rest). Tasknames are files that label a specific task protocol run in the scanner(such as Language). Another file may be created with the same taskname that contains all the relevant behavioral data, as well as are a set timing description. Several different tasknames can be created, each with a different timing reference and behavioral data, and they can be used on fscan to quickly generate activation maps of functional images. If a taskname file has been created, simply open the Stats taskbar, select autotask, and an activation map of that dataset will appear.
