Supporting Data for "How Interface Organization Relates to Preschoolers' Visual Search and Cognitive Load in Educational Apps: An Eye-Tracking Study"

This dataset contains de-identified analysis data supporting the findings reported in the manuscript “How Interface Organization Relates to Preschoolers’ Visual Search and Cognitive Load in Educational Apps: An Eye-Tracking Study.” The study involved 30 preschool children aged 4–6 years and examined visual attention, visual search behavior, subjective cognitive load, and behavioral performance across educational app interface conditions. The repository contains separate datasets for eye-tracking measures, behavioral performance, and subjective cognitive load, together with a README file and a codebook describing the variables, units, and coding conventions. Participant identifiers have been replaced with anonymous study codes. The publicly available files do not contain names, contact information, exact dates of birth, school or class information, photographs, videos, or other direct identifiers. Raw eye-tracking recordings, scene videos, images, and potentially identifiable participant materials are not included due to ethical and privacy considerations concerning minor participants.
