Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Cognitive Science
  • Data Science

Background:

  • Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has benefited from meta-analysis and mega-analysis of study data.
  • The potential and feasibility of large-scale electroencephalography (EEG) data mega-analysis remained unclear.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the possibility and utility of conducting EEG mega-analysis.
  • To establish if combining raw EEG data from multiple studies yields novel insights.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted a large-scale EEG mega-analysis using data from 18 studies across six sites.
  • Employed a fully-automated processing pipeline for noise reduction, channel interpolation, referencing, and artifact removal.
  • Utilized channel-level and source-level analyses, including ICA-based dipolar sources, to assess data comparability and identify patterns.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated the feasibility of both channel-level and source-level EEG mega-analysis when metadata is consistent.
  • Identified consistent differences in frequency baseline amplitudes across brain regions (e.g., higher alpha posteriorly, higher beta temporally).
  • Detected consistent variations in the slope of the EEG aperiodic spectrum across brain areas.

Conclusions:

  • EEG mega-analysis is a viable and fruitful approach, providing insights not achievable through single studies.
  • Consistent patterns in EEG spectral properties across diverse studies and paradigms can be robustly identified.
  • The developed automated pipeline and comparability measures facilitate future large-scale EEG data integration and analysis.
