Code Documentation
- RunSpectralEvents_IndividualChannels.m
- Set desired task (Resting_State, MGS, SNR)
- Set epoch (Delay or Fix; only is running resting state)
- Set seconds; only if running delay epoch
- Set band to analyze (gamma, beta, theta, alpha)
- Pull subjects from the preprocessed folder
- Calls createXmatrix_individualChannels.m that organizes the data in the correct format that the spectral event code expects
- Creates an array of values corresponding to the trigger values, called classLabels
- Defines event band and frequency values based on which band you're running
- Runs the spectral event toolbox, see Spectral Event Toolbox
- Saves out large structs of the subjects spectral event data
- SpectralEvents_Struct_Extraction.m
- Initialize task, epoch, and band
- Load in the structs
- Extracts out the Event Number, Power, Duration, Max Power, and Max Frequency and generates the average of each
- Crates a large table with all the subjects data
- Run SpectralEvents_Analysis.R
- Assesses all the age relations with the spectral event measures and associations with behavioral measures
