Dataset for paper Gender, Social Interactions and Interests of Characters Illustrated in Scratch and Python Programming Books for Children

Dataset for paper Gender, Social Interactions and Interests of Characters Illustrated in Scratch and Python Programming Books for Children.<br>This study explores the gender, social interactions and interests of characters illustrated in ten popular extracurricular Scratch and Python children’s books. For gender, we gathered data on pronouns and the masculinity/femininity of characters’ appearance (main colours, clothes, accessories, hairstyle). To determine characters’ social interactions, they are categorised as being illustrated alone, in proximity to others, or as having interactions with others. We also collected data on the type of character and the activity they are doing to determine interests.

本论文配套数据集：儿童Scratch与Python编程书籍插画角色的性别、社交互动与兴趣
本研究针对十本主流儿童课外Scratch与Python编程书籍中的插画角色，探讨其性别特征、社交互动情况与兴趣倾向。在性别维度，我们收集了角色的指代代词以及外貌的性别气质相关数据，涵盖主色调、服饰、配饰与发型等方面。为判定角色的社交互动状态，我们将其划分为三类：单独呈现、与其他角色同框但无互动，以及与其他角色存在实际互动。此外，我们还收集了角色类型与角色所开展的活动相关数据，以此分析其兴趣倾向。
