“…Overall, estimating neural processes via model‐based approaches tends to improve the signal‐to‐noise ratio (Bach & Friston, ). For example, model‐based analysis of SCR (Staib, Castegnetti, & Bach, ), heart period responses (Castegnetti et al, ), respiration responses (Castegnetti, Tzovara, Staib, Gerster, & Bach, in press), and possibly also startle eyeblink responses (Khemka, Tzovara, Gerster, Quednow, & Bach, ) provides better discrimination of CS+/CS‐ responses than peak scoring measures in fear conditioning paradigms.…”
