Data for: Perceptual training of audiovisual simultaneity judgments generalizes across spatial locations

This dataset contains the raw behavioral data associated with the study “Perceptual training of audiovisual simultaneity judgments generalizes across spatial locations” by Patrick Bruns, Theresa Paumen, and Brigitte Röder.

The file "prepost.csv" contains all information about stimulus presentation and performance for each subject in each trial of the pretest and posttest stage of the experiment:

• Column 1 (Subject):
  Unique subject ID for each subject in the experiment
• Column 2 (Excluded):
  Filter variable indicating subjects that were excluded from the analyses reported in the paper by Bruns, Paumen, and Röder (0 = included; 1 = excluded)
• Column 3 (Group):
  During the training stage of the experiment audiovisual stimulus pairs were exclusively presented in either the left or the right hemifield (1 = left hemifield trained; 2 = right hemifield trained)
• Column 4 (Test):
  1 = pretest; 2 = posttest
• Column 5 (Trial):
  The trial number within each test phase
• Column 6 (SOA):
  The stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) in ms of the asynchronous audiovisual stimulus pair (negative values indicate auditory leading and positive values indicate visual leading)
• Column 7 (Hemifield):
  Hemifield in which the audiovisual stimuli were presented (1 = left hemifield; 2 = right hemifield)
• Column 8 (Trained):
  Variable indicating whether the audiovisual stimuli were presented in the subject’s trained hemifield (0 = untrained hemifield; 1 = trained hemifield)
• Column 9 (Interval):
  In each trial two audiovisual stimulus pairs were presented, one synchronous and one asynchronous (1 = first stimulus pair synchronous; 2 = second stimulus pair synchronous)
• Column 10 (Deviant):
  10% of the trials were deviant trials in which the central fixation LED flickered either during the first or the second stimulus interval (0 = no deviant; 1 = deviant first interval; 2 = deviant second interval)
• Column 11 (Response):
  Subjects indicated whether the synchronous audiovisual stimulus pair was presented in the first or second interval, except for deviant trials which required pressing a different key instead (1 = first interval; 2 = second interval; 3 = deviant)
• Column 12 (Correct):
  Variable indicating whether the response was correct or incorrect (0 = incorrect; 1 = correct)

The file "training.csv" contains all information about stimulus presentation and performance for each subject in each trial of the training stage of the experiment:

• Column 1 (Subject):
  Unique subject ID for each subject in the experiment
• Column 2 (Excluded):
  Filter variable indicating subjects that were excluded from the analyses reported in the paper by Bruns, Paumen, and Röder (0 = included; 1 = excluded)
• Column 3 (Group):
  During the training stage of the experiment audiovisual stimulus pairs were exclusively presented in either the left or the right hemifield (1 = left hemifield trained; 2 = right hemifield trained)
• Column 4 (Block):
  Block number (1-3), subjects completed 3 blocks of training
• Column 5 (Trial):
  The trial number within each block
• Column 6 (SOA):
  The stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) in ms of the asynchronous audiovisual stimulus pair (negative values indicate auditory leading and positive values indicate visual leading)
• Column 7 (Interval):
  In each trial two audiovisual stimulus pairs were presented, one synchronous and one asynchronous (1 = first stimulus pair synchronous; 2 = second stimulus pair synchronous)
• Column 8 (Deviant):
  10% of the trials were deviant trials in which the central fixation LED flickered either during the first or the second stimulus interval (0 = no deviant; 1 = deviant first interval; 2 = deviant second interval)
• Column 9 (Response):
  Subjects indicated whether the synchronous audiovisual stimulus pair was presented in the first or second interval, except for deviant trials which required pressing a different key instead (1 = first interval; 2 = second interval; 3 = deviant)
• Column 10 (Correct):
  Variable indicating whether the response was correct or incorrect (0 = incorrect; 1 = correct)
