Example datasets for bep036

[Arshitha]

Added pheno001 and pheno002 example dataset inspired by ds004215 on OpenNeuro but significantly modified to keep it simple and easy to convey the various use cases proposed in BEP036.

Use cases covered (and to be added to this PR):

• pheno001 - Single session with both phenotype and imaging data
• pheno002 - Two sessions with one imaging data only session
• pheno003 - Two sessions with one phenotype data only session
• pheno004 - Two sets of sessions. One set of sessions (e.g. screening, baseline, followup, etc) for phenotype data and another set of sessions (e.g. 01, 02, etc) for imaging data.

Still in draft state but would appreciate any and all feedback.

This is great, thanks! I'm guessing you left it in draft state becausew of pheno001 and pheno002, right?

I think we should remove the age_at_visit column/field from all phenotype/ measurement tools and instead provide a root-level sessions file with that field. Should we maybe take that a step farther and RECOMMEND or say it's OPTIONAL to add age to the sessions file?

[Arshitha]

I like that idea. It's redundant information that can be aggregated to sessions level, and can be a recommendation in the BEP.

[Arshitha]

It's in Draft state because I haven't prepared pheno003 and pheno004 but yes, all four example datasets will violate the contribution guidelines.

Got a question from @dominikwelke --

Could this PR include an example showing how to represent multiple runs from one participant-session?

@ericearl mentioned today this is easily done by adding a run column in the .tsv, would be nice to see illustrated and mentioned here.

I hijacked the not yet created pheno004 for use with some current bids-validator testing needs at bids-standard/bids-specification#2044. Can we make this a non-draft PR and get it merged hopefully? @effigies @Arshitha @SamGuay @surchs

Addressed in updates.

Please set the BIDS_SCHEMA environment variable to https://bids-specification--2044.org.readthedocs.build/en/2044/schema.json here:

bids-examples/.github/workflows/validate_datasets.yml

Line 114 in e52f77f

run: echo BIDS_SCHEMA=https://bids-specification.readthedocs.io/en/latest/schema.json >> $GITHUB_ENV

Please also add pheno004 to be skipped on legacy and stable:

bids-examples/.github/workflows/validate_datasets.yml

Lines 98 to 101 in e52f77f

	- name: Skip legacy validation for post-legacy datasets
	run: for DS in mrs_* dwi_deriv; do touch $DS/.SKIP_VALIDATION; done
	if: matrix.bids-validator == 'legacy'
	shell: bash

bids-examples/.github/workflows/validate_datasets.yml

Lines 103 to 106 in e52f77f

	- name: Skip stable validation for datasets with unreleased features
	run: for DS in dwi_deriv; do touch $DS/.SKIP_VALIDATION; done
	if: matrix.bids-validator != 'dev'
	shell: bash

@effigies Is that comment just above here a note for me? I'm confused by most of it and don't feel safe editing those files as-is. If you need me to take care of that, can I sit with you, Ross, or Nell to figure it out or have it explained to me enough to be able to do the work?

[effigies]

Okay, I did what I asked. It looks like there are issues in the schema that need to be addressed, but also there are unrelated issues in pheno001-003: https://github.com/bids-standard/bids-examples/actions/runs/13188395001/job/36815880378?pr=465

This is super-helpful @effigies, thank you! I'm bringing the errors out of the logs here for us (@Arshitha @SamGuay @surchs):
