1. This study will be used as an extended example later on.
2. It should be noted that the illustrations provided in this paragraph are very simple and suitable for the 'beginner'. For the more advanced user, there are more sophisticated procedures, such as offered by the software program Table Curve 2D (Systat Software Inc.).
3. We thank Paul van Geert for helping us set up the resampling models.
4. We have also performed several somewhat more complex definitions and criteria (including a sequence effect and looking at relative variability), but the results remained roughly the same: the resampling model was able to reproduce the data in 20-25% of all cases.
5. The assumption is that our sampling frequency is slightly higher than the duration of the peak. Although this is a reasonable assumption, it is possible to formulate a different definition of a peak depending on what you are interested in.
6. In an additional calculation - where we also included negative peaks - these findings turned out to be relatively robust (p-values of Alberto and Jorge were 0.1450 and 0.0044 respectively).
