Analysis-friendly snapshots of participant-authorised, de-identified platform data—with stable match codes, explicit exclusions and a codebook beside every release.
The monthly library never quietly blends records from different consent histories.
Used on the SDO feedback page as aggregate distributions with its external provenance and convenience-sample limitation stated. It is not a YWID participant-level public release.
Aggregate-only unless original consent and licence permit moreOnly data gathered by this platform with a current explicit open-science permission can enter the automated monthly release.
Eligible for the public catalogue after disclosure controlsData from researcher-built studies stay in their governed project workspace and never enter the public core automatically.
Private by default and purpose-boundThe public collection is deliberately smaller than the private research record. It contains only the fields needed for common secondary analyses.
match_idMost analyses need only the participant-by-item core file. A separate long-format behavioural file holds approved study interactions and timing. The same temporary match_id links them within that month’s release.
One row per completed SDO measure. Demographics, 16 item responses and scale scores.
Long-format item latency, answer revisions and whitelisted interface events. No event payloads or exact times.
Each release freezes all eligible platform-core submissions received before the stated cutoff. Researcher-created surveys never enter this pipeline.
These prototype releases are for non-commercial research under CC BY-NC 4.0 · non-commercial research use. Users should cite the release month and schema version, avoid re-identification attempts and report disclosure concerns to the platform steward.
