<div dir="ltr">Hi Julian, <br>I will update the eeglab2fieldtrip function. Right now it is referencing it from the EEGlab folder (I have the latest one for that, so they must not have updated it). <br>As for ft.math, I looked at the documentation and cant figure anything out to fix it. I do use cfg.parameter = 'avg' which also exists in the data. Is there no way to do ft.math and also keep individual files? It works when I do it on data that does not have the individual field as well.<br>Here are the 2 files I am using and you can see the code I use to call the function below:<div><div><img src="cid:ii_k3hmy7v60" alt="image.png" width="562" height="365"><br></div></div><div><div><img src="cid:ii_k3hmyech1" alt="image.png" width="562" height="360"><br></div></div><div><div><img src="cid:ii_k3hmzivm2" alt="image.png" width="461" height="562"><br></div></div><div>The error I get is as follows: </div><div>Warning: timelock structure contains field with and without repetitions </div>selecting these fields that have repetitions: individual<br>removing these fields that do not have repetitions: avg, dof, var<br>Warning: timelock structure contains field with and without repetitions <br>selecting these fields that have repetitions: individual<br>removing these fields that do not have repetitions: avg, dof, var<br>Error using ft_math (line 144)<br>the requested parameter is not present in the data</div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Nov 27, 2019 at 1:05 AM Julian Keil <<a href="mailto:julian.keil@gmail.com">julian.keil@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div style="overflow-wrap: break-word;">Dear Amna,<div><br></div><div>First, I suggest you update your fieldtrip and EEGlab versions.</div><div>The line specified in your error does not match with the current eeglab2fieldtrip version (see here for the current implementation <a href="https://github.com/fieldtrip/fieldtrip/blob/master/external/eeglab/eeglab2fieldtrip.m" target="_blank">https://github.com/fieldtrip/fieldtrip/blob/master/external/eeglab/eeglab2fieldtrip.m</a>)</div><div><br></div><div>Second, what are you trying to compare with ft_math?

If I do cfg.keepindividual = 'yes' (which is required for cluster permutation analysis), the "avg" field is missing from the results. I only see the avg field if I specify "no" to keepindividual. I saw that someone had an issue with this in 2015 (<a href="https://mailman.science.ru.nl/pipermail/fieldtrip/2015-March/021876.html" target="_blank">https://mailman.science.ru.nl/pipermail/fieldtrip/2015-March/021876.html</a>). I have tried to combine the grand average ERP by doing it once with keepindividual='yes' and once with keepindividual='no'. See below:<div> [avgERP2] = ft_timelockgrandaverage(cfg);<br> avgERP.individual = avgERP2.individual; %avgERP has only the "avg" field and is missing "individual".
