PsPM-FER01: PSR, SCR, ECG and respiration measurements from a discriminant delay fear conditioning task with visual CS and electrical US. (Q6723136)

This dataset includes pupil size response (PSR), skin conductance response (SCR), electrocardiogram (ECG) and respiration measurements. Also included are CS and US information and shock expectancy ratings at the end of the experiment for 30 healthy unmedicated participants (12 males and 18 females aged 23.9+/-4.4 years) participating in a classical (Pavlovian) discriminant delay fear conditioning task. Fear acquisition consisted of 10 CS- and 32 CS+ trials (16 CSa+/16 CSb+). Half of the CS+ trials were paired with an electric shock. CS were colored triangles (yellow/red/blue). US consisted of a 500 ms train of 250 square pulses with individual pulse width of 0.2 ms. SOA between the CS onset and US was 3.5 seconds. CS and US co-terminated. The ITI was randomly determined as discrete values between 7-11 seconds (mean 9 seconds).
