# Overview This repository contains the data (approximately 87,500 responses) for Peters, B., Kaiser, J., Rahm, B., & Bledowski, C. (2020). Object-based attention prioritizes working memory contents at a theta rhythm. Journal of Experimental Psychology: General. Advance online publication. https://doi.org/10.1037/xge0000994 https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2020-86712-001 See the paper for details on the data and the analysis. # Description There are two Matlab -mat files - Peters-JEP2020-Experiment1.mat - Peters-JEP2020-Experiment2.mat which contain the data for Experiment 1 and Experiment 2 (Supplementary Material) respectively. Each file contains a Matlab struct named **data**. - **.trialData** holds the single trial data - **.RT** : reaction time [ms] - **.correctReponse** : correct response [bool] - **.includedResponse** : included response [bool]. excluded responses are no responses, multiple responses, or outliers (i.e., RT > 1500 or RT < 150) - **.participantID**: participant ID [1,...,N] - **.condition** : condition of the probe (1 = valid, 2 = same-object, 3 = different-object) - **.SOA** : stimulus onset asynchrony between the attentional cue and the probe (in milliseconds) - **.averageData** : holds the temporally smoothed averages - **.RT** : average reaction time of correct and valid responses - **.percentCorrect** : percent correct responses of valid responses - **.dim1 - .dim3** : values of the three dimensions of the arrays **RT** and **percentCorrect** - **.percentCorrectPerParticipant** : average percent correct per person - **.participantsIncluded** : participants included in the final analysis (i.e., percentCorrectPerParticipant > 60%)
