Dataset to "Choose to think: Nudging towards privacy informed decisions at the app download stage"

This data is analysed and reported in the publication "Choose to think: Nudging towards privacy informeddecisions at the app download stage". The study examines a two-stage nudge intervention in a scenario-based online study. In Stage 1, we analysed whether different nudges (color, reminder, social minority, social majority), compared to a control condition, can increase users’ engagement with privacy information. Once participants have decided to engage, we analysed how the recommendation of friends (vs. the app store) and the privacy rating (low vs. high) of a hybrid nudge with additional privacy information affected the subsequent download decision in Stage 2.

本数据集的相关分析与报告发表于论文《审慎抉择：应用下载阶段助力用户做出隐私知情决策的助推干预》("Choose to think: Nudging towards privacy informed decisions at the app download stage")。该研究针对一项基于情景的线上实验中的两阶段助推(nudge)干预展开分析。第一阶段中，本研究探讨相较于对照组，不同类型的助推干预(色彩提示、提醒信息、社会少数群体引导、社会多数群体引导)是否能够提升用户对隐私信息的关注度。在参与者决定查看隐私信息后，本研究进一步分析了第二阶段的实验：附带额外隐私信息的混合型助推(hybrid nudge)干预所采用的好友推荐模式(相较于应用商店推荐)，以及隐私评级(低vs高)，会如何影响用户后续的应用下载决策。
