An fMRI dataset of verbalized spontaneous thought with annotated transcripts and self-report trait measures

2026-05-12

Abstract excerpt

Spontaneous thought is pervasive in everyday human cognition, yet datasets capturing its neural dynamics under minimally interrupted conditions remain limited. The current dataset was acquired from a think-aloud functional MRI experiment in which 118 participants continuously verbalized their spontaneous thoughts during 10-minute scanning sessions. The raw MRI data and verbal transcripts with sentence-level timest...
