Usage

Experiment replication

This section describes how to replicate our user study experiment, and collect data about how different hints impact the performance of participants.

To launch the Alloy4Fun platform populated with tasks for each session, just run the following commands from the root directory of the artifact. The Meteor server may take a few minutes to launch, wait for the "Started your app" message to show.

cd experimentdocker-compose up

This will launch Alloy4Fun at http://localhost:3000. The tasks are accessed through permalinks assigned to each participant. The experiment allows for up to 104 participants, and the list of available identifiers is given in file identifiers.txt. The group of each participant is determined by the last character of the identifier, either N, L, E or D. The task database can be consulted in directory data/experiment, in Alloy4Fun JSON files.

In the 1st session, each participant was given one permalink that gives access to 12 sequential tasks. The permalink is simply the participant's identifier, so participant 0CAN would just access http://localhost:3000/0CAN. The next task is available after a correct submission to the current task or when a time-out occurs (5mins). Each participant was assigned to a different treatment group, so depending on the permalink different kinds of hints are provided. Below are 4 permalinks, each for each hint group:

Group N (no hints): http://localhost:3000/0CAN

Group L (error locations): http://localhost:3000/CA0L

Group E (counter-example): http://localhost:3000/350E

Group D (error description): http://localhost:3000/27AD

In the 2nd session, likewise the 1st session, each permalink gave access to 12 sequential tasks, and the next task is available after a correct submission or a time-out (5mins). The permalink is constructed by prepending the participant's identifier with P-. So participant 0CAN would just access http://localhost:3000/P-0CAN. In the 2nd sessions all participants were expected to solve the tasks without any hints provided, so the permalinks from different groups are undifferentiated.

Before the 1st session the participants should answer the socio-demographic questionnaire, that should ask the following information: unique identifier, age, sex, familiarity with the Alloy language, and average academic grade.

Before and after both sessions the participants should answer the standard PrEmo 2 questionnaire. PrEmo 2 is published under an Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International Creative Commons licence (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0). This means that you are free to use the tool for non-commercial purposes as long as you give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and do not modify the original material. The original material, namely the depictions of the diferent emotions, can be downloaded from https://diopd.org/premo/. The questionnaire should ask for the unique user identifier, and for the attachment with each of the depicted 14 emotions, expressed in a 5-point Likert scale.

After both sessions the participants should also answer the standard UMUX questionnaire. This questionnaire can be used freely, and should ask for the user unique identifier and answers for the standard 4 questions in a 7-point Likert scale. For information about the questions, how to implement the questionnaire, and how to compute the usability metric ranging from 0 to 100 score from the answers, please see the original paper:

ObjectiveTo determine accuracy and efficiency of using generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) to undertake thematic analysis.IntroductionWith the increasing use of GenAI in data analysis, testing the reliability and suitability of using GenAI to conduct qualitative data analysis is needed. We propose a method for researchers to assess reliability of GenAI outputs using deidentified qualitative datasets.MethodsWe searched three databases (United Kingdom Data Service, Figshare, and Google Scholar) and five journals (PlosOne, Social Science and Medicine, Qualitative Inquiry, Qualitative Research, Sociology Health Review) to identify studies on health-related topics, published prior to whereby: humans undertook thematic analysis and published both their analysis in a peer-reviewed journal and the associated dataset. We prompted a closed system GenAI (Microsoft Copilot) to undertake thematic analysis of these datasets and analysed the GenAI outputs in comparison with human outputs. Measures include time (GenAI only), accuracy, overlap with human analysis, and reliability of selected data and quotes.ResultsFive studies were identified that met our inclusion criteria. The themes identified by human researchers and Copilot showed minimal overlap, with human researchers often using discursive thematic analyses (40%) and Copilot focusing on thematic analysis (100%). Copilot’s outputs often included fabricated quotes (58% SD = 45%) and none of the Copilot outputs provided participant spread by theme. Additionally, Copilot’s outputs primarily drew themes and quotes from the first 2-3 pages of textual data, rather than from the entire dataset. Human researchers provided broader representation and accurate quotes (79% quotes were correct, SD = 27%).ConclusionsBased on these results, we cannot recommend the current version of Copilot for undertaking thematic analyses. This study raises concerns about the validity of both human-generated and GenAI-generated qualitative data analysis and reporting.

The CETSA and Thermal Proteome Profiling (TPP) analytical methods are invaluable for the study of protein–ligand interactions and protein stability in a cellular context. These tools have increasingly been leveraged in work ranging from understanding signaling paradigms to drug discovery. Consequently, there is an important need to optimize the data analysis pipeline that is used to calculate protein melt temperatures (Tm) and relative melt shifts from proteomics abundance data. Here, we report a user-friendly analysis of the melt shift calculation workflow where we describe the impact of each individual calculation step on the final output list of stabilized and destabilized proteins. This report also includes a description of how key steps in the analysis workflow quantitatively impact the list of stabilized/destabilized proteins from an experiment. We applied our findings to develop a more optimized analysis workflow that illustrates the dramatic sensitivity of chosen calculation steps on the final list of reported proteins of interest in a study and have made the R based program Inflect available for research community use through the CRAN repository [McCracken, N. Inflect: Melt Curve Fitting and Melt Shift Analysis. R package version 1.0.3, 2021]. The Inflect outputs include melt curves for each protein which passes filtering criteria in addition to a data matrix which is directly compatible with downstream packages such as UpsetR for replicate comparisons and identification of biologically relevant changes. Overall, this work provides an essential resource for scientists as they analyze data from TPP and CETSA experiments and implement their own analysis pipelines geared toward specific applications.

For those who were sampled at Wave 4, Wave 4.5 was the first annual follow-up wave.Wave 5.5, conducted in 2020, was a special data collection for Wave 4 Cohort youth and young adults ages 13 to 19 at the time of the Wave 5.5 interview. Also in 2020, a subsample of Wave 4 Cohort adults ages 20 and older were interviewed via the PATH Study Adult Telephone Survey (PATH-ATS).Wave 7.5 was a special collection for Wave 4 and Wave 7 Cohort youth and young adults ages 12 to 22 at the time of the Wave 7.5 interview. For those who were sampled at Wave 7, Wave 7.5 was the first annual follow-up wave. Dataset 1002 (DS1002) contains the data from the Wave 4.5 Youth and Parent Questionnaire. This file contains 1,395 variables and 13,131 cases. Of these cases, 11,378 are continuing youth having completed a prior Youth Interview. The other 1,753 cases are "aged-up youth" having previously been sampled as "shadow youth." Datasets 1112, 1212, and 1222, (DS1112, DS1212, and DS1222) are data files comprising the weight variables for Wave 4.5. The "all-waves" weight file contains weights for participants in the Wave 1 Cohort who completed a Wave 4.5 Youth Interview and completed interviews (if old enough to do so) or verified their information with the study (if not old enough to be interviewed) in Waves 1, 2, 3, and 4. There are two separate files with "single wave" weights: one for the Wave 1 Cohort and one for the Wave 4 Cohort. The "single-wave" weight file for the Wave 1 Cohort contains weights for youth who completed an interview in Wave 1 an

The dataset has 21 columns that carry the features (questions) of 988 respondents. The efficiency of any machine learning model is heavily dependent on its raw initial dataset. For this, we had to be extra careful in gathering our information. We figured out that for our particular problem, we had to go forward with data that was not only authentic but also versatile enough to get the proper information from relevant sources. Hence we opted to build our dataset by dispatching a survey questionnaire among targeted audiences. Firstly, we built the questionnaire with inquiries that were made after keen observation. Studying the behavior from our intended audience, we came up with factual and informative queries that generated appropriate data. Our prime audience were those who were highly into buying fashion accessories and hence we had created a set of questionnaires that emphasized on questions related to that field. We had a total of twenty one well revised questions that gave us an overview of all answers that were going to be needed within the proximity of our system. As such, we had the opportunity to gather over half a thousand authentic leads and concluded upon our initial raw dataset accordingly.

This study aimed to explore the views of healthcare professionals regarding the barriers and facilitators for a Fracture Liaison Service (FLS) in Malaysia. The qualitative study was conducted from February to December 2021 at a tertiary hospital in Malaysia. Doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and policymakers were recruited via purposive sampling. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted until thematic saturation was achieved. Data were transcribed verbatim and analysed using thematic analysis. Thirty participants [doctors (n = 13), nurses (n = 8), pharmacists (n = 8), and policymakers (n = 1)] with 2–28 years of working experience were recruited. Three themes emerged: 1) Current delivery of secondary fracture prevention; 2) Importance of secondary fracture prevention, and 3) FLS sustainability. Some participants reported that the current post-hip fracture care was adequate, whilst some expressed concerns about the lack of coordination and continuity of care, especially in non-hip fragility fracture care. Most participants recognised the importance of secondary fracture prevention as fracture begets fracture, highlighting the need for a FLS to address this care gap. However, some were concerned about competing priorities. To ensure the sustainability of a FLS, cost-effectiveness data, support from relevant stakeholders, increased FLS awareness among patients and healthcare professionals, and a FLS coordinator were required. Training and financial incentives may help address the issue of low confidence and encourage the nurses to take on the FLS coordinator role. Overall, all participants believed that there was a need for a FLS to improve the delivery of secondary fracture prevention. Addressing concerns such as lack of confidence among nurses and lack of awareness can help improve FLS sustainability.

The WIC Infant and Toddler Feeding Practices Study–2 (WIC ITFPS-2) (also known as the “Feeding My Baby Study”) is a national, longitudinal study that captures data on caregivers and their children who participated in the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) around the time of the child’s birth. The study addresses a series of research questions regarding feeding practices, the effect of WIC services on those practices, and the health and nutrition outcomes of children on WIC. Additionally, the study assesses changes in behaviors and trends that may have occurred over the past 20 years by comparing findings to the WIC Infant Feeding Practices Study–1 (WIC IFPS-1), the last major study of the diets of infants on WIC. This longitudinal cohort study has generated a series of reports. These datasets include data from caregivers and their children during the prenatal period and during the children’s first five years of life (child ages 1 to 60 months). A full description of the study design and data collection methods can be found in Chapter 1 of the Second Year Report (https://www.fns.usda.gov/wic/wic-infant-and-toddler-feeding-practices-st...). A full description of the sampling and weighting procedures can be found in Appendix B-1 of the Fourth Year Report (https://fns-prod.azureedge.net/sites/default/files/resource-files/WIC-IT...). Processing methods and equipment used Data in this dataset were primarily collected via telephone interview with caregivers. Children’s length/height and weight data were objectively collected while at the WIC clinic or during visits with healthcare providers. The study team cleaned the raw data to ensure the data were as correct, complete, and consistent as possible. Study date(s) and duration Data collection occurred between 2013 and 2019. Study spatial scale (size of replicates and spatial scale of study area) Respondents were primarily the caregivers of children who received WIC services around the time of the child’s birth. Data were collected from 80 WIC sites across 27 State agencies. Level of true replication Unknown Sampling precision (within-replicate sampling or pseudoreplication) This dataset includes sampling weights that can be applied to produce national estimates. A full description of the sampling and weighting procedures can be found in Appendix B-1 of the Fourth Year Report (https://fns-prod.azureedge.net/sites/default/files/resource-files/WIC-IT...). Level of subsampling (number and repeat or within-replicate sampling) A full description of the sampling and weighting procedures can be found in Appendix B-1 of the Fourth Year Report (https://fns-prod.azureedge.net/sites/default/files/resource-files/WIC-IT...). Study design (before–after, control–impacts, time series, before–after-control–impacts) Longitudinal cohort study. Description of any data manipulation, modeling, or statistical analysis undertaken Each entry in the dataset contains caregiver-level responses to telephone interviews. Also available in the dataset are children’s length/height and weight data, which were objectively collected while at the WIC clinic or during visits with healthcare providers. In addition, the file contains derived variables used for analytic purposes. The file also includes weights created to produce national estimates. The dataset does not include any personally-identifiable information for the study children and/or for individuals who completed the telephone interviews. Description of any gaps in the data or other limiting factors Please refer to the series of annual WIC ITFPS-2 reports (https://www.fns.usda.gov/wic/infant-and-toddler-feeding-practices-study-2-fourth-year-report) for detailed explanations of the study’s limitations. Outcome measurement methods and equipment used The majority of outcomes were measured via telephone interviews with children’s caregivers. Dietary intake was assessed using the USDA Automated Multiple Pass Method (https://www.ars.usda.gov/northeast-area/beltsville-md-bhnrc/beltsville-h...). Children’s length/height and weight data were objectively collected while at the WIC clinic or during visits with healthcare providers.
