How to define, operationalize, and improve quality of online interpersonal interaction: A scoping review

In this scoping review, we reviewed the higher education literature for quality of online interaction definitions, operationalizations, and interventions, as well as for reported recommendations and implications of studying this construct. Our literature search resulted in 1408 studies. After screening, 80 were included. From these studies, we extracted general information, as well as definitions, operationalizations, interventions, and recommendations and implications. Dataset1 contains the general information that has been extracted from the studies. This dataset is the simplified version that was used for analysis. Dataset2 contains the codes that were attributed to extracted information in regards to definitions, operationalizations, interventions, and recommendations and implications. Most codes of this dataset are qualitative and therefore the result of qualitative analysis. Multiple coding rounds took place.
