This document describes the full details of the second data set (Study 2) used in Coutinho et al., to appear. The Electroencephalography (EEG) and facial Electromyography (EMG) signals included in this data set, and now made public, were collected in the context of a previous study by Gentsch, Grandjean, and Scherer, 2013 that addressed three fundamental questions regarding the mechanisms underlying the appraisal process: Whether appraisal criteria are processed (1) in a fixed sequence, (2) independent of each other, and (3) by different neural structures or circuits. In this study, a gambling task was applied in which feedback stimuli manipulated simultaneously the information about goal conduciveness, control, and power appraisals. EEG was recorded during task performance, together with facial EMG, to measure, respectively, cognitive processing and efferent responses stemming from the appraisal manipulations.
