The directory contains the following folders and files:


A folder named “Experiment 1” containing:


Stimuli:

The experiment stimuli are split into part 1 and part 2 corresponding to parts 1 and 2 of the experiment. All stimuli are included in the following MATLAB files named: 

“STIMULIpart1.mat”
“STIMULIpart2.mat”

Each MATLAB file contains a struct for all stimuli containing the variables:

“name”: the name of stimulus (to cross reference to participant responses)
“type”: waveform type
“amp”: amplitude of stimulus
“freq”: frequency of stimulus


Participant Responses:

The participant responses are split into part 1 and part 2 corresponding to parts 1 and 2 of the experiment. All responses are recorded in the following MATLAB files named:

“Participant_Responses_Part1.mat”
“Participant_Responses_Part2.mat”

Each MATLAB file contains a struct for all participants 1 to 20 containing the variables:

“trials”: when the stimulus was presented to participants (the randomised order)
“num”: stimulus number
“xVal” + “yVal”: mouse position (in 700 by 700 window) of participants response in circumplex model (y values need inversion)
“name”: name of stimulus

The name of the stimulus corresponds with the “name” field of the Stimuli discussed above.


Experiment Documents:

The consent form and participant information sheet used in the experiment:

A folder named “Experiment 2” containing:

Stimuli:

The music samples M1 to M7 that were used in Experiment 2 as .mp3 and .midi files, named as follows:

“M1.mp3”
“M2.mp3”
“M3.mp3”
“M4.mp3”
“M5.mp3”
“M6.mp3”
“M7.mp3”

“M1.midi”
“M2.midi”
“M3.midi”
“M4.midi”
“M5.midi”
“M6.midi”
“M7.midi”

The text files of the tactile mappings T1-T7 and the tactile compositions S1-S8 describing the control of the Pump-and-Vibe interface. Within each text file is a n-row by 10-column array of values, where n is the number of time steps, columns 1-8 correspond to the vibration motors 1-8 and column 10 corresponds to the pneumatic actuation. Named as follows:

“T1.txt”
“T2.txt”
“T3.txt”
“T4.txt”
“T5.txt”
“T6.txt”
“T7.txt”

“S1.txt”
“S2.txt”
“S3.txt”
“S4.txt”
“S5.txt”
“S6.txt”
“S7.txt”
“S8.txt”


Participant Responses:

The participant valence responses are recorded in an excel spreadsheet named:

“RawData.xlsx”

The participant adjective responses (by position in Hevner’s circle) are recorded in a MATLAB file named:

“Experiment2adjective_data.mat”

For both of these sets of data, the stimuli were presented to participants in a randomised order. The stimuli order for each individual participant is recorded in a MATLAB file named:

“orderParticipant[participant number].mat”

Within each of these MATLAB files is four arrays containing the stimulus order for each group of stimuli as detailed below. These arrays are named:

“stimOrder1”
“stimOrder2”
“stimOrder3”
“stimOrder4”

stimOrder1: Group 1: Music only
stimOrder2: Group 2: Tactile compositions
stimOrder3: Group 3: Tactile representations of music (not including randomly generated one)
stimOrder4: Group 4: Music and tactile combination
