This repository includes the preprocessed EEG data for the project described in the manuscript "Decoding the content of working memory in school-aged children" 
by Nora Turoman, Prosper Agbesi Fiave, Clélia Zahnd, Megan T. deBettencourt and Evie Vergauwe

The repository includes 20 files, which are named per the following convention:

testing date (yyyymmdd) _ internal project code (i.e., 137) _ random participant number _ order of preprocessing steps (i.e., downsampled_aref_1-40bandpass_interpolated_epochs_badepochsrejected_ICA_badcomprejected_BC_EOGremoved)

Thus, the repository contains the following files:

The order of preprocessing steps in the name denotes the following series of steps performed on the data:
1. downsampling
2. re-referencing to the average reference
3. bandpass filtering between 1Hz and 40Hz
4. interpolating bad channels
5. splitting the recording into epochs
6. rejecting bad epochs
7. performing ICA and rejecting bad components
8. performing baseline correction
9. removing EOG channels from the data

Each file includes EEG volage data in a grid of 64 electrodes as rows and 1650 timepoints as columns, split into epochs (exact number varies per subject). 

The file is in a .bdf format that can be opened using EEGLAB, a Matlab-based software (see here: https://eeglab.org/).
