Frame Parameters ................ The five stimulus parameters known as "frame" parameters can be used to specify the spatial and temporal limits and resolution of the stimulus. They define a frame within which the stimulus is defined. The frame parameters are not required, and are ignored, when the stimulus is used with a model, because the model file specifies these values with its own set of parameters (specifically, *xn*, *yn*, *tn*, *sscale* and *tscale*). However, when a stimulus is to be manipulated independently of a model, for example when making a movie of a stimulus for viewing, then these frame parameters are required. The frame parameters are as follows * **stim_frame_xn** - width of frame in which to place stimulus (pix) * **stim_frame_yn** - height of frame in which to place stimulus (pix) * **stim_frame_tn** - duration of frame in which to place stimulus (pix) * **stim_frame_sscale** - degrees/pixel * **stim_frame_tscale** - sec/pixel
