An adolescent neuroimaging database combining movie-watching, eye-tracking and cognitive tasks

Adolescence is a critical period of neurodevelopment, yet most neuroimaging datasets focus on adult populations, leaving a gap in our understanding of how the brain processes information during this formative stage. Here we present a multimodal neuroimaging dataset acquired from 41 adolescent participants aged 11-18 years, combining 3T fMRI data with concurrent eye-tracking and physiological monitoring during naturalistic movie-watching. Data are shared in BIDS-compliant format and technical validation demonstrates good data quality across participants, with low head motion and strong inter-subject neural synchronisation during movie-watching. In addition to the scanning session, participants completed remote assessments covering a broad range of self-reported developmental and mental health traits, alongside cognitive tasks targeting reward-based and social learning. This dataset offers a rich resource for studying the adolescent brain, with particular utility for research on individual differences in mental health and cognition. All data and processing code is openly available to facilitate reproducible science.
