Replication Data for: Rearing condition affects behavioral response to cross-modal expectancy violation paradigm in zebra finches

However, while birds reared in a colony setting and birds reared without exposure to adult song both detected audiovisual congruency, the degree of behaviors exhibited differed between the rearing conditions. Thus, multisensory integration appears to be important for females to identify their mates, but differences in developmental environment influence how recognition is behaviorally expressed. The dataset includes the processed data used in our statistical analyses (performed in JMP) as well as the code and raw data that were used to generate the processed data.

The raw data is organized by bird and includes all of the x and y coordinate positions for the beak tip, head, and back during the pre-stimulus, video playback, and audio playback periods (30 seconds each, 1800 frames at 60 fps) for all stimulus combinations (mate congruent; unfamiliar congruent; incongruent mate audio, unfamiliar video; incongruent unfamiliar audio, mate video). These data are included as excel files containing all data for each bird as tabs within the file and as CSV files (each CSV file is one time point for one condition for each bird).

README.txt files are available to provide information on the specific measures and data organization.
