Capturing the Aftermath of the Dobbs v. Jackson Decision in the Google Search Results across 65 U.S. Locations

Dataset for the paper "Capturing the Aftermath of the Dobbs v. Jackson Decision in the Google Search Results across 65 U.S. Locations" to appear in the proceedings of ICWSM 2023. Starting on the day of the U.S Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, we collected Google Search result pages for 21 days in 65 U.S. locations for a set of almost 1,700 queries. We stored all the SERPs generated by Google. Because the archives containing these SERPs are much larger than the file limits of the Harvard Dataverse, you can find them at this address: https://cs.wellesley.edu/~credlab/icwsm2023/. Instead, in this repository we will share all the files that were created by parsing some of the information in the SERPs: organic search results, top stories, and embedded tweets. We also provide aggregated statistics for the domains appearing in the organic results and the top stories. This dataset can be useful for answering questions about Google Search's algorithms with respect to shaping access to information related to important news events.
