The folders are as follows:
- Transcriptions: The folder includes the transcripts of counseling conversations in the dataset.

3. Dataset Information
The dataset consists of counseling videos that are publicly available on YouTube channels and other public websites. The set of videos consist of Motivational Interviewing (MI) counseling demonstrations by professional counselors and MI role-play counseling by psychology students. Each video portrays different speakers and the conversations cover various health topics including smoking cessation, alcohol consumption, substance abuse, weight management, and medication adherence. More details on the data collection process are available in the paper that introduced the dataset (Perez-Rosas et al, 2019; full reference below).
The dataset consists of 259 counseling conversations, with 155 video clips labeled as high-quality counseling and 104 labeled as low-quality counseling. The length of the conversations in the dataset ranges from 5-20 minutes.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
5. Transcripts
Transcriptions of the videoclips were collected using YouTube automatic captioning and Mechanical Turk whenever automatic transcription was not available. Speakers in the conversations are labeled manually and also following a heuristic to label the speaking sequence.
