Experimental designs with timing of auditory stimulation and image acquisition. A: Sparse temporal sampling (STsamp) design. B: Event‐related with continuous scanning design (ERcont). C: Clustered volume acquisition design (BIG‐CVA). Lighter gray blocks reflect auditory/silence stimulation and darker gray (or yellow) blocks image acquisitions. D: ER65: Selecting the (in comparison to STsamp) time corresponding 65 scans (in gray/black‐yellow stripes) out of the ERcont design enables the direct comparison between the two designs and the direct assessment of the influence of SBN on signal intensities.
