[FieldTrip] zero-padding VS mirror-padding (ft_freqanalysis)

Hi,

Well it depends on the sliding window length at the end I guess. If it’s not feasible -sure.

I would try both and see how they affect the dependent metric. Your ultimate goal I suspect is to reject H0. If this is equally possible with either strategy- fine.

Seems that you don’t have much of a baseline to begin with. Would frequency analysis also be an option?
