nm000228 NEMAR-native dataset

Nieuwland et al. 2018: Multi-site N400 Replication Study

A large-scale multi-laboratory replication study (N=356 participants across 9 UK institutions) investigating probabilistic prediction in language comprehension using event-related potentials. Participants read sentences word-by-word while EEG was recorded, with critical manipulations of indefinite articles (a/an) preceding expected or unexpected nouns. The study challenges strong prediction accounts by demonstrating reliable N400 effects on target nouns but not on preceding articles, contrary to the original DeLong et al. (2005) findings.

wget -xc -i urls.txt

Compute on this dataset

Two routes today, with a third (in-browser one-click submission) landing soon.

  1. NeuroScience Gateway (NSG) portal.

    NSG runs EEGLAB / Brainstorm / MNE pipelines on supercomputing time donated by SDSC. Create an account, point a job at this dataset's S3 prefix (s3://nemar/nm000228), and submit.
    nsgportal.org →

  2. Local processing with nemar-cli.

    Pull the dataset to your machine and run any toolbox locally. Honors the published version pinning. 

    npm install -g nemar-cli
nemar dataset clone nm000228
cd nm000228 && nemar dataset get
  3. Just the files.

    rclone, aria2c, or any HTTPS client works against data.nemar.org/nm000228/ — the manifest carries presigned S3 URLs.

Direct compute access is coming soon. One-click NSG submission from this page is scoped for a follow-up phase. Tracked on nemarOrg/website#6.
