Multi-resolution 7T fMRI data on the representation of visual orientation

Dataset Description

This dataset consists of empirical ultra high-field fMRI data recorded at four
spatial resolutions (0.8 mm, 1.4 mm, 2 mm, and 3 mm isotropic voxel size) for
orientation decoding in visual cortex — in order to test hypotheses on the
strength and spatial scale of orientation discriminating signals. This is an
extension of the studyforrest project. All seven participants previously
volunteered for the audio-only and the audio-visual Forrest Gump study. The
dataset is compliant with the BIDS data description standard
(http://bids.neuroimaging.io).  A detailed description can be found in:
