    Time course of a single trial. Within one task block each trial started with the presentation of one out of four stimuli. The feedback stimulus appeared 1000ms after stimulus off-set and stayed on the screen for 1500ms. The next trial started after a variable Inter Trial Interval (ITI) of 500, 750, or 1000ms. Originally published in Groen et al. (2007).
