The dataset comprises of interactions from 3 movie selection tasks with 40 different carousel interfaces per user. In total, 87 users and 3,477 interactions are logged. Non-Public Dataset download contains: Non-Public User Features Dataframe (non_public_user_features.csv) - Contains all the information gathered from the users during the pre-survey, post-survey, and post-selection screens (selection explanations). Non-public version adds: Age Gender Answer to most helpful carousel topic/explanation question Non-public Feedback Dataframe (non_public_feedback_dataset.csv) - All the feedback (fixations, clicks, cursor movements) data gathered during the movie selection screens. Non-public version adds: Raw Gaze data x,y pixel postions for fixation, cursor, clicks Poster Images (poster_images_resize.zip)- For convenience, we provide a zip folder including all the poster images of the movies used in the user study. They can also be accessed through the URL in the Item Features of the public version of the dataset. Screen Recordings - Includes recordings of every movie selection task for all users and screens. Note: Screen recordings include the loading (at start and after movie selection) of the webpage, for which all feedback data is already removed from the public and non-public summary feedback dataframe. The blue dot is a gaze indicator created by the post-processing of the recording software used by the user study. Screen recordings [84GB] exceed the allowed storage amount for Zenodo.
