The aim is to investigate the mechanisms of semantic processing in the Chinese language within a natural reading environment.\n\n## Data Collection\n- Participants: 30 healthy, right-handed individuals (average age: 22.07 years, standard deviation: 2.7 years; 18 females, 12 males) who are native Chinese speakers.\n- Materials: Text ranging from 15 to 20 characters, presented as news headlines or short sentences. Materials include target semantic items and non-target semantic items.\n- Procedure: Participants read sentences displayed on a screen at their own pace. Each participant completed 8 blocks of 400 trials in total, with each trial lasting approximately 2.2 seconds, including a fixation cross and inter-stimulus intervals.\n\n## Data Structure\nThe dataset is organized according to the BIDS standard:\n- Main Folder:\n  - `dataset_description.json`: Description of the dataset.\n  - `participants.tsv`: Participant information.\n  - `participants.json`: Details of columns in `participants.tsv`.\n  - `README`: General information about the dataset.\n  - `data_all.mat`: Labeled EEG data of all subjects in MAT format.\n- Derivative Data:\n  - `final_bids/`: EEG data stored in JSON, TSV, and EDF formats.\n  - `preproc/`: Preprocessed data, including subfolders for each subject (`sub-01`, etc.), with data in various formats (BDF, SET, FDT, ERP, MAT).\n\n## Technical Validation\nSensor-level EEG analyses were performed, showing distinct responses to target and non-target words at different time points, with notable changes in potential distribution across the scalp.\n\n## Distribution\nThe raw and preprocessed EEG data are openly available online at https://github.com/tym5049/TMNRED_Dataset under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).\n\n## Usage Notes\n- Researchers should cite the dataset appropriately when using it.\n- For any questions or issues, please refer to the `README` file or contact the corresponding authors: Yanru Bai (yr56 bai@tju.edu.cn), Guangjian Ni (niguangjian@tju.edu.cn).\n\n## Acknowledgments\nThis work was mainly supported by the National Key R&D Program of China (2023YFF1203503) and the National Natural Science Foundation of China (82202290). We also thank all research assistants who provided general support in participant recruiting and data collection.","bids_version":"1.7.0","sessions_count":8,"publish_date":null,"embedding_dirty":0,"license_tier":"public","zarr_status":"ready","zarr_converted_at":"2026-08-16 22:30:06","zarr_store_count":1160,"zarr_index_etag":"bdc04f5040981697a8c564ba14afffa2","zarr_source_commit":"0396907391e844e97f1e190b8aba9167a55f8cb9","archive_status":"ready","archive_size":17072768564,"archive_retry_count":0,"records_status":"ready","archive_skip_reason":null,"zarr_errors":40,"zarr_failure_count":40,"zarr_deterministic":1,"zarr_failed_at":"2026-08-16 22:30:06","num_dataset_citations":1,"num_datapaper_citations":0,"n_channels":30,"electrode_system":"10-10","has_hed":0,"hed_version":null,"is_exemplar":0,"bytes_present":18697176718,"data_complete":1,"withdrawn_at":null,"withdrawn_reason":null,"archive_complete":null,"archive_absent_files":null,"archive_declared_files":null,"zarr_pool_breaks":null,"total_recording_duration":127755.09000000013,"recording_duration_min":41,"recording_duration_max":246,"recording_count":1200,"recordings_unavailable":40,"recordings_measured":1160,"channel_count_min":1,"channel_count_max":32,"sampling_frequency":200,"power_line_frequency":50,"eeg_reference":null,"placement_scheme":"based on the extended 10/20 system","sweep_stamps":"{\"enrichment_updated_at\":\"2026-08-19 01:46:55\",\"metadata_updated_at\":\"2026-08-19 01:47:16\",\"archive_checked_at\":\"2026-06-26 22:28:40\",\"zarr_checked_at\":null,\"records_checked_at\":\"2026-06-26 22:14:32\",\"citations_updated_at\":\"2026-09-08 03:00:53\",\"channel_montage_checked_at\":\"2026-06-28 23:41:52\",\"hed_checked_at\":\"2026-06-30 05:16:17\",\"data_checked_at\":\"2026-08-20 03:00:18\",\"availability_report_at\":\"2026-07-23 01:24:06\",\"recording_stats_at\":\"2026-09-02 11:33:16\",\"signal_defaults_at\":\"2026-09-02 12:28:49\"}","participants":30,"num_citations":1,"latest_version":"v1.0.0","zarr_verify_status":null,"zarr_verified_at":null,"owner_username":"nemarAdmin","owner_github":"nemarAdmin","file_size_formatted":"17.43 GB","zarr_data_failures":{"count":40,"detail_ref":"zarr/index.json","compacted_by":"migration_0074"},"zarr_index_url":"https://zarr.nemar.org/on005383/zarr/index.json","attestation_deposit_type":null,"attestation_key_status":null,"attestation_deidentified":null,"attestation_no_duplicate":null,"attestation_upstream_source":null,"attestation_accepted_at":null}}
