Abstract

This dataset accompanies a study assessing whether a decision tree and its glossary improve the classification of study designs based solely on abstract information. Two groups of evaluators, comprised mainly of pathologists and epidemiologist, each individually classified 100 references twice: first without the tool and then using it. Agreement between the two rounds was compared overall and by professional profile. A secondary objective was to gather users’ evaluations of the tool and its usability. The dataset includes information on evaluators’ professional and academic backgrounds, their classifications with and without the tool, and their user-based assessment of the tool.
