Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In recent years, functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) measurement technique that can measure brain function unconstrained in a normal laboratory environment attracts attention. However, the skin blood flow fluctuations due to various factors which are easily misunderstood as brain activities, are mixed as large artifacts in fNIRS signals. When measuring brain activity by fNIRS, sufficient consideration is necessary for the designs of experiments and analysis methods. In this study, in order to examine the experimental conditions and analysis procedures suitable for brain function measurement by fNIRS, event-related fNIRS measurement was performed when a subject was observing blinking checkered flag patterns. The brain function components were extracted from the measurement fNIRS signals by using a blood flow dynamics model and applied a model based analysis method using a general linear model. The results suggest that the activation of the primary visual cortex and the secondary visual cortex is detected in synchronization with the presentation of the visual stimulus. This indicates that the proposed method is effective to measure brain fuctions by using fNIRS.
