The phrase "allowed us to dissociate" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where one is discussing the ability to separate or detach from a situation, thought, or feeling, often in psychological or emotional contexts.
Example: "The therapy sessions allowed us to dissociate from our past traumas and focus on healing."
Alternatives: "enabled us to detach" or "permitted us to separate".
This design allowed us to dissociate attentional biasing of perceptual processing (via SSVEPs) and stimulus processing in the frontal cognitive control network (via time frequency analyses of EEG data).
This allowed us to dissociate preparation of efferent motor commands, from their execution, and from reafferent information about the actual movement.
In Experiment 1 our intermanual version allowed us to dissociate the sensory identification and structural representation components of the classic in-between task.
The inter-manual version of the task allowed us to dissociate, for the first time, the sensory aspects of finger gnosis, i.e., localising the tactile stimulation within a primary sensory map, from the representational aspects, i.e., linking the stimulation to a structural representation of the hand.
We recorded place cell activity in rats exploring morphing linear tracks that allowed us to dissociate the geometry of the track from its topology.
This measure was used because FA is more susceptible to errors arising from partial volumes [ 27], and this FA cut-off value allowed us to dissociate white matter structure from other tissue [ 28].
We hypothesised that new and potent caspase inhibitors might allow us to dissociate falls in Mcl-1 levels from rates of neutrophil apoptosis.
For each vignette, participants were obliged to consider either the protagonist's beliefs or his or her preferences, thus allowing us to dissociate brain regions that were sensitive to differences in mental state type (belief and preference) from those sensitive to differences in mentalizing certainty (ambiguous and unambiguous).
Comparing these conditions will therefore allow us to dissociate regions that establish how the seen objects are actually applied to one another (necessary in both conditions) from those regions that derive how an action with the specific objects should be performed for the action's goal to be achieved (only necessary in the tool action condition).
Thrips are an excellent group for experimentally teasing apart nutrition-based explanations from alternative hypotheses, because the first 2 larval stages are feeding stages, whereas the final 3 are nonfeeding pupal instars, allowing us to dissociate the effects of nutrition from the effects of microenvironment.
