Data Set

Data was collected over a three week period from friends and relatives by students. There was no control in the data collection for differences in the computers used by different individuals, nor for differences in familiarity with the task, or time of day and other environmental circumstances. Data was obtained using the Serendip Time to Think? exhibit, and is reported in terms of results for each of the four cases described there. Times are given in milliseconds.
