Dataset for "Short-Form Videos Degrade Our Capacity to Retain Intentions: Effect of Context Switching On Prospective Memory"
Listed in DaRUS
Social media platforms use short, highly engaging videos to catch users’ attention.
Description
While the short-form video feeds popularized by TikTok are rapidly spreading to other platforms, we do not yet understand their impact on cognitive functions. We conducted a between-subjects experiment (𝑁 = 60) investigating the impact of engaging with TikTok, Twitter, and YouTube while performing a Prospective Memory task (i.e., executing a previously planned action).
The study required participants to remember intentions over interruptions. We found that the TikTok condition significantly degraded the users’ performance in this task. As none of the other conditions (Twitter, YouTube, no activity) had a similar effect, our results indicate that the combination of short videos and rapid context-switching impairs intention recall and execution.

We contribute a quantified understanding of the effect of social media feed format on Prospective Memory and outline consequences for media technology designers not to harm the users’ memory and wellbeing. Description of the Dataset Data frame: The ./data/rt.csv provides the data frame of reaction times. The ./data/acc.csv provides the data frame of reaction accuracy scores.
The ./data/q.csv provides the data frame collected from questionnaires. The ./data/ddm.csv is the learned DDM features using ./appendix2_ddm_fitting.ipynb, which is then used in ./3.ddm_anova.ipynb. Figures: All figures appeared in the paper are placed in ./figures and can be reproduced using *_vis.ipynb files.
