TMS artifact correction procedure, related to STAR Methods

(A) EEG data processing workflow and pipeline for Experiments 2 and 3.

(B) Examples of artifact components removed in the first (TMS artifacts, upper row) and second (lower row) ICA analyses.

(C) Effects of artifact rejection procedure on an active TMS condition. One second epoch of one participant before (Raw data) and after (Corrected data) the correction procedure. Dashed lines reflect Pre-stimulus TMS pulses (P).

(D) Effects of artifact rejection procedure on a TMS-artifact free signal. The procedure was applied to ensure that any effect we have observed could not be alternatively explained by a spurious effect of the cleaning protocol adopted. One second epoch of one participant before (Raw data) and after (Corrected data) correction procedure. It can be noticed that the artifact-removal procedure per se does not alter the underlying signal, confirming that the artifact-rejection procedure per se is not accountable for the modulation of the oscillatory activity. Dashed lines reflect simulated pulses (sP). ICA=Independent Components Analyses, A.U.=Arbitrary Units, ms=millisecond. Adapted from Di Gregorio et al. (2022).
