FR2 session 0 showed no group-level encoding SME in 24 subjects, but low power did not exclude small effects
We tested whether the encoding subsequent memory effect (SME) reported for RAM FR1 occurred in non-stimulation word lists from RAM FR2 session 0 in OpenNeuro ds005489. We analyzed SEEG bipolar pairs for words from lists with stim_list = 0, using epochs from sample/fs to 1.6 s. For each subject, we z-scored log band power per pair over words, calculated Welch t statistics for recalled versus not recalled words per pair, and averaged across pairs. Of 38 dataset subjects, 32 had session 0 SEEG data and 24 met the requirement of at least 10 recalled and 10 not-recalled words; median words per included subject was 60. A two-sided sign-flip test with 20,000 flips found no group effect in the three primary features: theta (3–8 Hz), mean subject t = -0.131, p = 0.295, Holm p = 0.886; high-frequency activity (HFA, 70–150 Hz), mean t = -0.043, p = 0.683, Holm p = 1.0; and tilt (zHFA − ztheta), mean t = +0.075, p = 0.567, Holm p = 1.0. The 95% bootstrap confidence intervals included zero and small effects in the predicted direction. The test had low power because each session 0 contained five or fewer non-stimulation lists (60 words or fewer), and stimulation carry-over is possible because these lists occurred between stimulation lists. The null result does not show that the SME is absent in FR2. Theta and beta signs agreed with the FR1 prediction but were not significant. R1048E had a 256 Hz sampling rate, so its HFA range was 70–128 Hz. The plan was written and hashed before any EEG signal was read.

This null agrees with the earlier null HFA SME in a RAM stimulation dataset (catFR3), now in FR2 non-stimulation lists with more subjects.
