Study on the Semantics of Spatial Language - dataset
No full textBuilding on a previous study to collect rich data on spatial prepositions, we have conducted a study to gather annotations related to spatial language in 3D virtual environments. The data collection environment is built using the Unity3D modelling software and game engine. The study comprised two tasks --- a Preposition Selection Task and a Comparative Task. The Preposition Selection Task allows for the collection of categorical data while the Comparative Task provides typicality judgements. In the Preposition Selection Task participants are shown a figure-ground pair (highlighted and with text description) and asked to select all prepositions in the list which fit the configuration. Users may select `None of the above' if they deem none of the prepositions to be appropriate. In the Comparative Task a description is given with a single preposition and ground object where the figure is left ambiguous. Participants are asked to select an object in the scene which best fits the description. Again, participants can select none if they deem none of the objects appropriate. In both tasks, participants are given a first person view of an indoor scene which they can navigate using the mouse and keyboard. To allow for easy selection, objects in the scene are indivisible entities e.g. a table in the scene can be selected but not a particular table leg. We limited both tasks to prepositions: `in', `inside', `on', `on top of', `against', `over', `above', `under' and `below'. The current dataset is from an online study where participants were recruited via internal mailing lists along with recruitment of friends and family. For the study 67 separate scenes were created in order to capture a variety of tabletop configurations. Each participant performed first the Preposition Selection Task on 10 randomly selected scenes and then the Comparative Task on 10 randomly selected scenes, which took participants roughly 10 minutes. Some scenes were removed towards the end of the study to make sure each scene was completed at least 3 times for each task. 32 native English speakers participated in the Preposition Selection Task providing 635 annotations, and 29 participated in the Comparative Task providing 1379 annotations. As the study was hosted online we first asked participants to show basic competence. This was assessed by showing participants two simple scenes with an unambiguous description of an object. Participants are asked to select the object which best fits the description in a similar way to the Comparative Task. If the participant makes an incorrect guess in either scene they are taken back to the start menu

Developing a Raman spectroscopy-based tool to stratify patient response to pre-operative radiotherapy in rectal cancer - dataset
No full textRectal cancer patients frequently receive pre-operative radiotherapy (RT), prior to surgical resection. However, colorectal cancer is heterogeneous and the degree of tumour response to pre operative RT is highly variable. There are currently no clinically approved methods of predicting response to RT, and a significant proportion of patients will show no clinical benefit, despite enduring the side-effects. This dataset contains the raw and pre-processed Raman spectra taken from the biopsy specimens of 20 rectal cancer patients who showed a varying degree of tumour response to RT. This data was used in the multivariate analysis described in the associated paper to predict patient response to pre-operative RT

Communications about uncertainty in scientific climate-related findings: A qualitative systematic review
Get PDFWe undertake a systematic review of peer-reviewed literature to arrive at recommendations for shaping communications about uncertainty in scientific climate-related findings.
Climate communications often report on scientific findings that contain different sources of uncertainty. Potential users of these communications are members of the general public, as well as decision makers and climate advisors from government, business and non-governmental institutions worldwide. Many of these users may lack formal training in climate science or related disciplines. This dataset is associated with a systematic review of the English-language peer-reviewed empirical literature from cognitive and behavioral sciences and related fields, which examines how users perceive communications about uncertainty in scientific climate-related findings.
This dataset includes 89 studies of communications about uncertainty in scientific climate-related findings, taken from 53 articles, identified in the databases Web of Science, SCPUS and PsychInfo. Inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) Any reported studies should involve samples consisting of members of the general public, or decision makers and climate advisors from government, business and non-governmental institutions worldwide; (2) Articles should report on one or more empirical studies or reviews of empirical studies, in which users received communications about climate change consequences in numerical, verbal or visual presentation formats, and including some form of uncertainty in scientific climate-related findings, rather than a precise value or a probabilistic point estimate21,45 (Figure 1); (3) Any reported studies should experimentally compare responses to such communications so as to assess effects of communications on users’ responses. They may also compare responses to communications which include uncertainty to those communications without uncertainty; (4) Although analyses of differences in users’ characteristics such as for example climate change beliefs or environmental worldviews, political ideology, numerical skills or other user characteristics (Figure 1) were required for answering research question 2, articles were included even if these characteristics were not examined. Studies were coded according to characteristics of the decision context, including the presented climate change consequence, the presentation format, and the source of uncertainty. Coding also included characteristics of the users and how they were measured, if at all, including climate change beliefs and environmental worldviews, political ideology, numerical skills, and other user characteristics
