About This Dataset#

Magnetoencephalography (MEG) dataset recorded during the presentation of audiovisual sequences with a causality judgment task and temporal order judgment task. This MEG dataset was prepared in the Brain Imaging Data Structure (MEG-BIDS, Niso et al. 2018) format using MNE-BIDS (Appelhoff et al. 2019).

DESCRIPTION

PARTICIPANTS

The dataset contains 13 participants (Ab140232, Jl150443, Mm150194, Al150424, Mp110340, Rt160359, Cb140229, Cc160310, Lb160367, Mb160304, Mk150295, Sl160372, Mp150285).

EXPERIMENT

The experiment consisted of 10 consecutive recording blocks of 8 minutes each, whose order was counterbalanced across participants. Three blocks tested participants on a Causality judgement, and three blocks tested participants with a Temporal order judgement. Importantly, the same audiovisual sequences were used in both tasks in order to maintain a constant flow of feedforward multisensory inputs while manipulating the endogenous task requirements. Each block was composed of 25 repetitions of the 6 possible audiovisual sequences. A total of 75 presentations of each stimulus sequence were thus tested in each task. Four additional recording blocks consisted of participants passively hearing (auditory localizer, 2 blocks) or viewing (visual localizer, 2 blocks) one constitutive modality of the audiovisual sequence. Each localizer block was composed of 25 repetitions of the 6 possible stimuli (auditory or visual part of each stimuli), yielding a total of 50 presentations of each auditory and visual stimuli (2 tasks x 3 blocks x 25 repetitions x 6 sequences + 2 modalities x 25 repetitions x 2 blocks x 6 sequences = 1500 trials in total).

MEG

Brain magnetic fields were recorded in a MSR using a 306 MEG system (Neuromag Elekta LTD, Helsinki). MEG recordings were sampled at 1 kHz and band-pass filtered between 0.03 Hz and 330 Hz.

Four head position coils (HPI) measured the head position of participants before each block; three fiducial markers (nasion and pre-auricular points) were used for digitization and anatomicalMRI (aMRI) immediately following MEG acquisition. Electrooculograms (EOG, horizontal and vertical eye movements) and electrocardiogram (ECG) were simultaneously recorded. Prior to the session, 2 min of empty room recordings was acquired for the computation of the noise covariance matrix.

Bad MEG channels were marked manually.

MRI

The T1 weighted aMRI was recorded using a 3-T Siemens Trio MRI scanner. Parameters of the sequence were: voxel size: 1.0 × 1.0 × 1.1 mm; acquisition time: 466 s; repetition time TR = 2300 ms; and echo time TE = 2.98 ms

__init__(cache_dir: str, query: dict | None = None, s3_bucket: str | None = None, **kwargs)[source]#
save(path: str, overwrite: bool = False, offset: int = 0)[source]#

Save datasets to files by creating one subdirectory for each dataset:

path/
    0/
        0-raw.fif | 0-epo.fif
        description.json
        raw_preproc_kwargs.json (if raws were preprocessed)
        window_kwargs.json (if this is a windowed dataset)
        window_preproc_kwargs.json  (if windows were preprocessed)
        target_name.json (if target_name is not None and dataset is raw)
    1/
        1-raw.fif | 1-epo.fif
        description.json
        raw_preproc_kwargs.json (if raws were preprocessed)
        window_kwargs.json (if this is a windowed dataset)
        window_preproc_kwargs.json  (if windows were preprocessed)
        target_name.json (if target_name is not None and dataset is raw)
Parameters:
  • path (str) –

    Directory in which subdirectories are created to store

    -raw.fif | -epo.fif and .json files to.

  • overwrite (bool) – Whether to delete old subdirectories that will be saved to in this call.

  • offset (int) – If provided, the integer is added to the id of the dataset in the concat. This is useful in the setting of very large datasets, where one dataset has to be processed and saved at a time to account for its original position.
