About This Dataset#
This dataset includes MEG recordings from Japanese native speakers who read Japanese newspaper articles word by word. This dataset is part of BCCWJ-Brain; three types of brain data (fMRI, MEG, and EEG) were acquired from separate groups of participants using the same stimuli, enabling cross-modality comparisons of language processing with high spatial and temporal resolution respectively.
The BCCWJ-Brain collection consists of the following datasets:
BCCWJ-fMRI: ds007752 (https://openneuro.org/datasets/ds007752)
BCCWJ-MEG: ds007763 (https://openneuro.org/datasets/ds007763)
BCCWJ-EEG: ds007753 (https://openneuro.org/datasets/ds007753)
Overview
Participants
Data from thirty-five participants were included in the dataset (13 females and 22 males; mean age= 21.7 (SD = 2.75)). All participants were right-handed, had no neurological illness, and had normal or corrected-to-normal vision.

Overview
Participants
Data from thirty-five participants were included in the dataset (13 females and 22 males; mean age= 21.7 (SD = 2.75)). All participants were right-handed, had no neurological illness, and had normal or corrected-to-normal vision.
Data Acquisition
Continuous MEG was recorded with a 200-channel whole-head MEG system with axial gradiometers (RIOCH Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) in a shielded room at a sampling rate of 1,000 Hz with an online low-pass filter of 200 Hz. T1-weighted images were also collected; slice thickness of 1 mm, field of view of 256 × 25699 mm, matrix size of 368 × 368, repetition time (TR) of 1,100 ms, and echo time (TE) of 5.1ms. Facial structures were removed from T1-weighted images using PyDeface (Gulban et al., 2022).
Experiment Procedure
Twenty Japanese newspaper articles were used as stimuli. Stimuli were presented word by word using rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) implemented in PsychoPy (Peirce, 2007, 2009). Each stimulus was presented for 500 ms, followed by a 500 ms blank screen. The order of the newspaper articles were randomized.
Data Preprocessing
MEG data were preprocessed using MNE-Python (v1.9.0; Gramfort et al., 2013) and Eelbrain (v0.40.3; Brodbeck et al., 2023). We applied Continuously Adjusted least Square Method (CALM) filter (Adachi et al., 2001), then the continuous MEG data were combined with digitized files and converted into raw.fif files for further analysis. Independent component analysis (ICA) was then applied, and components reflecting ocular artifacts were identified and removed. The ICA decomposition was subsequently applied to the 0.1–40 Hz bandpass filtered data. Data were then segmented into epochs from −100 to 1,000 ms relative to word onset and downsampled to 200 Hz. Baseline correction was applied using the pre-stimulus interval (−100 to 0 ms). The preprocessed files are in derivatives.

Notes
Since the BCCWJ texts are not copyright-free, texts for the experiment is not included in this dataset. To obtain the text, users must register for access to BCCWJ (https://bccwj-data.ninjal.ac.jp/) separately. See https://clrd.ninjal.ac.jp/bccwj/en/subscription.html for the details. Once access is granted, we provide a script to incorporate the text into the corresponding events.tsv files.

Examples
>>> from eegdash.dataset import ON007763 >>> dataset = ON007763(cache_dir="./data") >>> recording = dataset[0] >>> raw = recording.load()
- __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.
