KitchenhamEtAl.CorrelationsAmongParticipants.Scanniello14TOSEM data

Description

Data illustrate correlations between results from individual participants in a family of four cross-over experiments conducted by Scanniello et al: [1] G. Scanniello, C. Gravino, M. Genero, J.A. Cruz-Lemus, and G. Tortora, 'On the Impact of UML Analysis Models on Source-Code Comprehensibility and Modifiability', ACM Transactions on Software Engineering and Methodlogy, vol. 23, no. 2, pp. 13:1-13:26, 2014 The family of experiments investigated whether the availability of analysis models in addition to the source code made the code easier to understand and modify.

Format

'KitchenhamEtAl.CorrelationsAmongParticipants.Scanniello14TOSEM': a data frame with 172 rows and 9 variables:

ExperimentID

<fct> | ExperimentID: A unique identifier for each experiment in the data set.

ParticipantID

<fct> | Participant ID: An identifier for each participant, unique for a specific experiment.

Treatment

<fct> | Experimental Treatment: AM an Analysis Model with source code (AM) vs Source Code only (SC)

SequenceGroup

<fct> | Experimental Sequence Group: A (AM-SC,S1-S2), B (SC-AM,S1-S2), C(AM-SC,S2-S1), D(SC-AM,S2-S1)

System

<fct> | Software systems used in the experiment: S1 A system to sell and manage CDs/DVDs in a music shop, S2 A system to book and by theater tickets.

Comprehension

<dbl> | Dependent variable: The comprehension level the software engineer achieved based on the F-measure

Modification

<dbl> | Dependent variable: The modifiability level the software engineer achieved based on the F-measure

Period

<fct> | Time period of the cross-over experiment: 1 or 2

CrossOverID

<fct> | CrossOver category: For 4 group the crossover category specifies the matching pairs of sequence groups, CO1 and CO2. For 2 group crossover, the category is set to CO1 only
