EEG data were recorded with a linked mastoid physical reference and were re-referenced by using an average reference.
Continuous EEG recordings were segmented into 3-second-long epochs (from −1 to +2 s relative to stimulus onset), filtered (2 30 Hz band-pass filter), re-referenced using an average reference, and baseline-corrected (baseline interval −1 to 0 s relative to stimulus onset).
Since the scalp and neck EMG magnitude is lower at electrode locations near the top and centre on the head, EMG will be lower if, instead of using an average reference, a midline channel, such as CZ, is used as a reference.

However, they used an average reference and retained the most artefactual peripheral channels in their average.
For a test patient sample, a series of ratios was generated for each diagnostic probe against 13 internal reference probes, rather than generating a single ratio for each probe by using an average of reference probes, to minimize differential tail-off effect.
This was performed using an average of endogenous references (18S, GAPDH, and HPRT1) to improve normalization across the panel of tissues used [ 41].
A standard linear regression using an average contemporaneous measure by a reference group (for example, by the school level, by workplace or by closest friends identified by the individuals) as a proxy for social interactions is easy to estimate.
After re-referencing the continuous EEG to an average reference, blinks were corrected using surrogate Multiple Source Eye Correction (MSEC) by Berg and Scherg (1994) implemented in BESA.
Moreover, as we used a common average reference, we cannot totally exclude that some highly synchronous slow waves may have been missed.
On the other hand, if the reference technique uses an average of four curves (CE of 4%), then for the same technique as before (error of 15%) the PE for the Bland-Altman plot is ± 30%, which according to the Critchley and Critchley criteria would be acceptable (Table 2 and Figure 4).
An average reference was used during acquisition of the EEG signal.
