Fragmentos narrativos y audios locutados en español para estímulos verbales de 20 segundos para Resonancia Magnética Funcional (fMRI) basados en la leyenda tradicional alemana El flautista de Hamelin [Dataset]

Abstract

This dataset contains a complete set of standardized verbal stimuli developed for Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) studies investigating auditory language processing.

The dataset includes narrative fragments of approximately 20 seconds in duration together with their corresponding audio recordings. The texts were created by Manuela del Caño Espinel from the traditional German legend El flautista de Hamelin, adapting the original narrative to obtain linguistically coherent stimuli with homogeneous duration, natural prosody and controlled lexical complexity.

The narrated audio files constitute the experimental stimuli presented during fMRI acquisition, whereas the written document provides the transcription of all stimuli used during the experiment.

The materials were developed for research involving children aged 7 to 17 years with neurological disorders and were designed to facilitate standardized auditory presentation across participants.
