Experiments DB Dev 9af33e747e analysis(matlab): matched-effort comparison (prev _f full vs current 0-3)
Add make_matched_effort.m: pick the current-study day cutoff whose per-animal
cumulative attempts best match the previous (_f) study's full-span total
(~405 attempts/animal -> current days 0-3), then fit the paper LME on both.

Two variation folders (data.csv + analyze.m + result.txt):
  variations/prev_f_full/            b2_f vs a2_f, days 0-9  (24 rats)
  variations/matched_current_d0_3/   Box-B2 vs Box-A2, 0-3   (6 rats)

At matched cumulative effort both show a significant positive stim x day
interaction (prev p=0.008 +0.56/day; current-0-3 p=0.004 +10.2/day) -- the
tDCS acceleration replicates at equal practice, though the count slopes are
not directly comparable across datasets given differing attempts/session.

VARIATION: matched_current_d0_3
==============================================================================
model: behavior ~ stim + day + stim:day + (1|rat) (behavior = success COUNT)
day = training day within window (0 = first analyzed day)
treatment (stim=1): Electrode-Box-B2
control (stim=0): Electrode-Box-A2
N = 6 rats, 24 sessions raw day coverage: treat 0..3, control 0..3
(equal day coverage over this window)
