Dear FSL-Experts,

I´m currently working with some unfortunate data which was acquired with
non-optimal acquistion parameters. The main problem is that the group, who
performed the experiment used a PRESTO sequence in which the TR was
determined individually for each subject.
So now i have scans with differnet TRs (differences ranging from something
like  0.2 to around 0,6 secs) from each subject.
From a discussion on the SPM mailing list some time ago, i remember that it
was not possible to analyze these scans because of unequal covariance or
somenthing like that.
As i understand it, FSL mixed effect approach allows one to analyze data
from unbalanced designs, would it also be possible and valid to analyze
scans with different TRs?

all the best,

Martin
