<strong>Sleuth</strong><strong>User</strong><strong>Manual</strong>–page2About<strong>Sleuth</strong><strong>BrainMap</strong> is an online database of functional and structural neuroimaging results in the form of stereotactic(x,y,z) coordinates. Along with these coordinates, <strong>BrainMap</strong> also archives each paper’s associated meta‐data,which includes information on subjects, conditions, experimental paradigms, etc. The software application<strong>Sleuth</strong>canbedownloadedfrom<strong>BrainMap</strong>’swebsite,http://brainmap.org,andisusedtosearchthedatabaseforexperimentsofinterestandviewtherelevantsearchresultsinastandardbrainspace(TalairachorMNI).LoggingInOnce<strong>Sleuth</strong>hasbeendownloadedandinstalledonyourcomputer,youmustvisitourwebsiteinordertoobtainausernameandpassword:http://brainmap.org/sleuth/account.html.Next,launch<strong>Sleuth</strong>andtypeinyourlogininformationinthedialogboxthatappears.Aftertheinitiallogin,<strong>Sleuth</strong>willstoreyourusernameandpasswordsothatyouwillnothavetoenteriteachtime.Ifyouprefertomanuallylogin,youcanchangethissettinginthePreferencesmenu.PerformingSearches<strong>Sleuth</strong>hasfourmainpanels:Search,Results,Workspace,andPlot.SearchToperformasearchofthe<strong>BrainMap</strong>database,firstchoosewhichdatabaseyouwouldliketosearch,functionalor voxel‐based morphometry ➊Fig.1.

A summary of theworkspace is listed on the top line of the panel ➊Fig.3: number of papers, experiments, conditions, andlocations. The workspace contents and vital statistics are shown in the top portion of the panel ➋Fig.3.Information listed here includes: <strong>BrainMap</strong> ID, year of publication, first author, journal, experiment name,behavioraldomain,andnumberofcoordinates(nobehavioraldomainislistedforVBMstudies).Area➌Fig.3allowsyoutochoosewhatinformationyouwishtoviewabouteachexperiment,includingCitation,Submitter,ProseDescription,Subjects,Conditions,BrainTemplate,Experiments,andResultsSynopsis(amodifiedlistingisavailableforVBMstudies).TheinformationcontainedinProseDescriptionandSubjectsareexactlythesameasthatpreviewedunderSearchResult.However,theCitationinformationisnowmuchmoredetailed,asistheExperiments information. Particularly valuable information that can be viewed under Experiments, including:
