Hello
i am going through an EEG file that i recorded using the Mitsar and after
completing the automatic EOG correction i wanted to go through the raw trace
myself and cut out any very noisy sections. I Managed to do this using the
mouse and the scissors symbol on the tool bar. When i do this a bold blue
line appears at the bottom of the raw EEG file.
However, when i then run the analysis it gives exactly the same output as a
raw EEG that i have not gone through and removed the additional artefacts.
Thus i must be missing something out. I have checked the manual but can find
no reference to manual artefact rejection using the cut tool. Can you help
me please, what do i have to do to make sure that the sections i have cut
are not included in the analysis?
thanks

OK, David.
I'll check it and ask my server to enlarge my mail-box.

VD> Hi Juri,
VD> i cannot send you the data files, as everytime i have tried they just
come
VD> back undelivered. I checked with out technical people and they say its
VD> because your mailbox is to small to accept a 3.5mb file. I checked this
out
VD> by sending the file to Annie and she received it. I tried again to send
one
VD> to you and again it was returned. Do you know if your mailbox can accept
VD> files as large as 3.5mb if not the only way i can see of getting you the
VD> data will be to send it over on a cd, not ideal but i would really value
VD> your input

VD> Dear Annie,
VD> I've not got any EEG files from David and I am waiting to get it from
VD> you.
VD> You mentioned TOVA for ERPs. Please use the animal GO/NOGO task I
VD> gave to you. We have 250 children data base for this task.
VD> As far as September concerns, I am going to Houston at iSNR conference
VD> and afraid that it will be exactly the third week of September. Let
VD> us think about other dates.
VD> All the best, Juri
FA>> Dear Juri--I have been trying to send you the following email and
zipped
FA>> data files. This hasn't been working. So here is the original
VD> email--files
FA>> to follow as soon as I can figure out how.
FA>> AF
FA>> Dear Juri,
FA>> I believe David sent you two files for a boy, TG, dob 12/10/1990. I
VD> think
FA>> he is clearly in the 10% group that Chabot and Serfontein talk about.
VD> He
FA>> does have high frontal beta. In fact, during recording, I was
wondering
VD> if
FA>> it wasn't a very high alpha, but it doesn't attentuate with eyes open.
FA>> However, all the children we've recorded show a pattern that is
VD> consistent
FA>> and puzzling. They all have extremely high amplitude EEGs relative to
VD> the
FA>> database. We are getting extremes in z-scores for both absolute and
FA>> relative power. Absolute readings are very high magnitude across
VD> locations
FA>> in almost all frequency bands (>3sd) (least in alpha and theta).
VD> Relative
FA>> power scores are extremely low across most all frequency bands (>-3sd).
FA>> According to the database, these children are so extremely abnormal is
VD> these
FA>> regards, yet normal in the criteria for our study (theta/beta ratios).
VD> And
FA>> the results are consistent for all 4 of the children we have recorded
at
VD> the
FA>> children's center. However, the adults we have recorded in our lab
VD> rooms
FA>> look as we would expect them to.
FA>> We get these same results whether we EOG correct and save as a .dat
file
VD> or
FA>> import the Mitsar file into NeuroGuide and use auto-select. We have
not
FA>> manually artefacted these files at all.
FA>> These data are so peculiar that I am concerned that we are doing
VD> something
FA>> wrong. On a more positive note, the ERPs for the TOVA are running
well.
VD> I
FA>> have yet to sort out audio for the oddball task, but that should go
VD> easily.
FA>> We are interviewing for David's position right now. It is quite a blow
VD> to
FA>> us that he is leaving. I am planning to work through the rest of the
VD> time
FA>> he is here and until after a replacement starts in. Would the 3rd week
VD> in
FA>> Sept be a reasonable time to visit St. Petersburg. I have friends from
VD> home
FA>> who want to go. I'd love to see St P and stop by the Institute as
well.
FA>> Thanks for any help.
