There are 9 sessions for each participant.<br>Data available in both .mat and .csv format. Download data_in_csv.zip for all data in .csv format.<br>Number of participants: 35 (20 female)<br>Stimulation frequencies: 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23 Hz<br>Stimulation methods:Single frequency (T1): 50% duty cycle square wavesDual frequency:Frequency superposition OR (T21) on 50% duty cycle square wavesFrequency superposition ADD (T22) on 50% duty cycle square waves, each at half brightnessCheckerboard pattern (T23) with 50% duty cycle square wavesTri frequency:Frequency superposition OR (T31) on 50% duty cycle square wavesFrequency superposition ADD (T32) on 50% duty cycle square waves, each at 1/3 brightness<br>Number of stimuli:Tested with all possible frequency combinations in dual- and tri-frequency stimulation.Single frequency: 6 (one stimulus of each frequency)Dual frequency: 15 (C(6,2)=15)Tri frequency: 20 (C(6,3)=20)<br>Sessions:Session 1: single frequency stimulationSessions 2-5: dual-frequency stimulationSessions 6-9: tri-frequency stimulation<br>You can use the Matlab code “dataset_processData.m” provided here to separate data (.mat) into trials. The separated data is then named “P##_T##_R#_#”, where P is Participant, T is Test (stimulation method), R is Repeat (each test is repeated 4 times), and the last number is stimuli index. Stimuli were randomly shuffled on the screen but the index does not change and lower frequencies have smaller index, e.g., 11 Hz has index 2 in T1, (7,17) combination has index 3 in T21, T22, T23. A pdf version of the code is also included (“dataset_processData.pdf”).<br>Should you require further information, please email Jing Mu (jing.mu [at] unimelb.edu.au).
