Description

This dataset includes skin conductance response (SCR), electrocardiogram (ECG) and respiration measurements. Also included are CS and US information, keypress responses and keypress response times from 18 healthy unmedicated participants (8 males and 10 females aged 23.89+/-2.52 years) participating in a classical (Pavlovian) discriminant trace fear conditioning task. CS were a red and a blue rectangle presented for 3 seconds. US consisted of 0.5 s square electric pulses with 0.2 ms duration and 10 Hz frequency. SOA between the CS onset and US was 4 s. The ITI was randomly determined on each trial to be 7, 9, or 11 s.

Notes

Raw data are contained in data.zip and described in readme.txt. Pre-processed data are contained in data_pp.zip and described in readme_pp.txt. Data are stored as .mat files for use with MATLAB (The MathWorks Inc., Natick, USA) in a format readable by the PsPM toolbox (bachlab.org/pspm). All raw data files are saved in MATLAB 9.2 (R2017a) format, and all pre-processed data files are saved in MATLAB 9.6 (R2019a) format. This research was supported by Wellcome Trust grant 091593/Z/10/Z, and Swiss National Science Foundation grant 320030_149586/1. Data pre-processing was supported by the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (Grant agreement No. ERC-2018 CoG-816564 ActionContraThreat).
