STEW comprises raw EEG recordings from 48 participants involved in a multitasking workload experiment [1]. Additionally, the subjects' baseline brain activity at rest was recorded before the test. The data was captured using the Emotiv Epoc device with a sampling frequency of 128Hz and 14 channels, resulting in 2.5 minutes of EEG recording for each case. Participants were instructed to assess their perceived mental workload after each stage using a rating scale ranging from 1 to 9, and these ratings are available in a separate file. The dataset has been divided into cross-validation folds based on individual participants. Additionally, binary class labels have been assigned to the data, categorizing workload ratings above 4 as "high" and those below or equal to 4 as "low". We utilize these labels for our specific problem. STEW can be accessed upon request through the IEEE DataPort [2].
