Abstract

This article described a publicly available dataset of the visual cognitive motivation study in healthy adults. To gain an in-depth understanding and insights into motivation, Electroencephalography (EEG) and functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) were measured simultaneously at shared locations while participants performed a visual cognitive motivation task. The participants’ choices in the cognitive motivation task were recorded. The effects of their motivation were identified in the recognition test afterward. This dataset comprised EEG and fNIRS data from sixteen healthy adults (age: 21- 37 years; 14 males and 2 females) during the cognitive motivation task with visual scenic stimuli. In addition, the motivation and the corresponding motivation effect were also provided. This dataset provides understanding and analyzing opportunities for the process of attention and decision while the brain undergoes an induced motivated state and its effect on the recognition performance. © 2024 The Author(s)
