ERP Data Analysis

Purpose

This skill encodes expert methodological knowledge for analyzing event-related potentials (ERPs) from EEG data. It provides domain-specific parameter recommendations, processing order guidance, component identification criteria, and statistical analysis strategies that a general-purpose programmer or data scientist would not know without specialized training.

When to Use This Skill

• Designing an ERP preprocessing pipeline for a new study
• Choosing filter settings, reference schemes, or artifact rejection criteria
• Identifying which ERP component to measure and how to define its time window and ROI
• Selecting appropriate amplitude measures (mean, peak, area) for a given component
• Choosing between traditional ANOVA-based analysis and mass univariate approaches
• Reviewing or troubleshooting an existing ERP analysis pipeline
