Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

| Description | The Pernet, Chauveau, Gaspar, & Rousselet (2011) publication has been cited 78 times in other publications and has been downloaded over 5000 times and its accompanying data set has been downloaded over 1000 times. The Yao, Vasiljevic, Weick, Sereno, O'Donnell, & Sereno (2013) publication has already been cited 10 times. It also attracted media attention after its publication in several outlets: Medical Xpress, The Scotsman, Targeted News, Health Canal, MyScience, Scotland4Me, Daily Mail, University Herald. Additional findings from the project are currently under final review (Sereno, Hand, Shahid, Yao, & O'Donnell, QJEP, revision submitted) and are in final preparation (Sereno, Hand, Shahid, & Leuthold) to academic journals and we anticipate they will have an impact scientifically on both the eye movement and EEG literatures, respectively. Moreover, both of these methodologies are now featured in many research applications including consumer research, human-computer interaction, pedagogy of reading, and clinical diagnoses. |
| Title | LIMO EEG: A Toolbox for Hierarchical LInear MOdeling of ElectroEncephaloGraphic Data |
| Description | Magnetic- and electric-evoked brain responses have traditionally been analyzed by comparing the peaks or mean amplitudes of signals from selected channels and averaged across trials. More recently, tools have been developed to investigate single trial response variability (e.g., EEGLAB) and to test differences between averaged evoked responses over the entire scalp and time dimensions (e.g., SPM, Fieldtrip). LIMO EEG is a Matlab toolbox (EEGLAB compatible) to analyse evoked responses over all space and time dimensions, while accounting for single trial variability using a simple hierarchical linear modelling of the data. In addition, LIMO EEG provides robust parametric tests, therefore providing a new and complementary tool in the analysis of neural evoked responses. |
