For more information refer to the UEQ handbook [2] or to Section 4.1 of our paper.<br> - The Demographics part consists of 15 questions investigating the types of users and their respective needs on the MISP platform. <br> ---------------------------------------<br> A - Surveys / 2 - Sentence Completion.pdf<br> ---------------------------------------<br> - The file consists of 8 questions i.e. sentence completion stems presented to our study participants as explained in Section 4.1 of our paper. <br> ---------------------------------------<br> B - Raw participant data / "1 - UEQ.csv"<br> ---------------------------------------<br> The file contains the (annonymized) raw participant data corresponding to the UEQ and demographics sections of the survey (file: "A - Surveys / 1 - UEQ+demographics.pdf"). It consists of the following fields:<br> - Participant ID<br> - 26 values (Q-ID 1.1 .. 1.26) corresponding to the 26 items of the UEQ scale<br> - 8 values (Q-ID 2.1.1 .. 2.1.8) corresponding to the Demographics question No. 1 ("Which of the following roles best describes how you (intend to) use MISP?")<br> - 14 values (Q-ID 2.2.1 .. 2.2.14) correspondign to the Demographics question No. 2. ("Which of the following categories best describes the organization you work in?")<br> - 1 value (Q-ID 2.3) corresponding to the Demographics question No. 3 ("How long have you been using MISP?")<br> - 1 value (Q-ID 2.4) corresponding to the Demographics question No. 4 ("If applicable, how often do you use MISP?")<br> - 1 value (Q-ID 2.5) corresponding to the Demographics question No. 5 ("Have you attended a training session on MISP before?")<br> - 1 value (Q-ID 2.6) corresponding to the Demographics question No. 6 ("Have you used the MISP training materials before?")<br> - 1 value (Q-ID 2.7) corresponding to the Demographics question No. 7 ("Have you used the MISP virtual machine before? ")<br> - 1 value (Q-ID XTR2.1) corresponding to the Demographics question No. 8 ("Have you used PyMISP - the Python library to access MISP via the API before? ")<br> - 1 value (Q-ID XTR2.2) corresponding to the Demographics question No. 9 ("Have you cloned a MISP repository before? ")<br> - 1 value (Q-ID XTR2.3) corresponding to the Demographics question No. 10 ("Have you contributed to any of the MISP repositories before? ")<br> - 1 value (Q-ID 2.8) corresponding to the Demographics question No. 11 ("Do you have an engineering or computer science background? ")<br> - 1 value (Q-ID 2.9) corresponding to the Demographics question No. 12 ("What is the highest level of school you have completed / degree you have received? ")<br> - 1 value (Q-ID 2.10) corresponding to the Demographics question No. 13 ("What is your age group?")<br> - 1 value (Q-ID 2.11) corresponding to the Demographics question No. 14 ("To which gender identity do you most identify?") <br> ---------------------------------------<br> B - Raw participant data / "2 - SC-Q[1..8].csv"<br> ---------------------------------------<br> The 8 files contain the raw participant responses to the different sentence completion questions (see file: "A - Surveys / 2 - Sentence Completion.pdf"). Each file consists of two fields:<br> - Participant ID <br> - 1 value for the sentence completion input. For instance, the file "2 - SC-Q1.csv" corresponds to the Sentence completion stem "When I use MISP, I feel …". Similarly, "2 - SC-Q2.csv" corresponds to the Sentence completion stem "MISP is best for …". The same logic applies to all 8 files ("2 - SC-Q[1..8].csv"). REFERENCES: [1] MISP. 2021.
