EEG datasets and metadata supporting the published article: Neural dynamics underlying coherent motion perception in children and adults

This fileset contains EEG data related to the following published article: Catherine Manning, Blair Kaneshiro, Peter J. Kohler, Mihaela Duta, Gaia Scerif and Anthony M. Norcia. (2019). Neural dynamics underlying coherent motion perception in children and adults. <i>Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 38, </i>100670 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.dcn.2019.100670<i>.</i> The script <b>MOVEP_analysis4_corrected.m</b> was used to generate the output .mat datasets contained in this data record. This code has already been shared under a BSD license on the OSF repository: https://osf.io/fkjt6/ (which is linked to in the published paper). A total of 122 Matlab formatted datasets are contained in this data record, each contains pre-processed electroencephalography (EEG) data for each of the 122 participants of the study. The datasets have the following format: <b>Formatted_XXXX.3_40_preproc.mat, </b>where XXXX corresponds to the participant ID. Participant IDs are listed in dataset demographics_incl.csv. The data in the Matlab formatted datasets result from preprocessing/formatting steps (see readme https://osf.io/fa5yp/). More details on the variables in each .mat file are provided in the document <b>DCNpaper_DataUpload-.docx.</b><i></i><b><br></b><b>MarkUpFile.docx </b>is a key explaining the EEG triggers found in the formatted data files (Triggers.matrix in each <b>Formatted_XXXX.3_40_preproc.mat</b>). Netstation triggers have a 4-character event code - and these are FXTN, BOIL, STIM, RESP and OFFS. They correspond to each trial event (FXTN = fixation onset, BOIL = boil; STIM = stimulus onset, RESP = response, and OFFS = stimulus offset).Each trigger also has keycode-keyvalue pairings (e.g., cohe = 10/30/50/75/100, dire = 0/1; corr = 0/1). When exporting the datafiles from Netstation to .raw files that were preprocessed in MATLAB, the authors converted these Netstation triggers into triggers with 4 digits that contain all of the information. These 4-digit triggers are found in Triggers.matrix in each Formatted_XXXX.3_40_preproc.mat file.<br>
