Dopamine Modulation of Motor and Implicit Learning in Auditory Temporal Attention

83075 bytes of code and data accompany a study on auditory temporal attention operating optimally at 1.5 Hz. The dataset supports analysis of Parkinson's disease patients tested ON and OFF L-DOPA medication alongside healthy controls. It investigates the selective role of dopamine in audio-motor interaction and the consolidation of performance improvements across sessions.

Use Cases

• Comparing auditory temporal attention performance between Parkinson's patients and healthy controls based on participant group data.
• Analyzing the effect of dopaminergic medication (L-DOPA) on motor synchronization to auditory streams based on experimental condition data.
• Investigating the consolidation of performance improvements across multiple testing sessions based on session data.
• Reproducing statistical analyses on the optimal sampling rate of auditory attention around 1.5 Hz using the provided code and data.

Strengths

• Includes data from a controlled experimental design with Parkinson's patients in both medicated (ON) and unmedicated (OFF) states.
• Dataset is openly licensed under CC-BY-4.0, facilitating reuse and reproduction.
• Directly supports reproduction of results for a specific preprint article (DOI: 10.21203/rs.3.rs-7301023/v1).

Limitations

• Column names and a precise row count are not provided, limiting immediate understanding of the data structure.
• The dataset size is given only in bytes (83075), which suggests it may be a relatively small collection of code and summary data rather than raw trial-level data.
• Relies on a single source (figshare) for all metadata, with no independent verification from other platforms.
