Hi, As it says in the FEAT manual: "The first number in each triplet is the onset (in seconds) of the period, the second number is the duration (in seconds) of the period, and the third number is the value of the input during that period." That is, the numbers must be in seconds, not milliseconds, but you can use as many decimal places as you like (e.g. 1.245) although very small time differences don't make a big difference in FMRI due to the haemodynamic response function (HRF).
