{ "pk": 25528, "title": "Making Sense of Time-Series Data: How Language Can Help Identify\nLong-Term Trends", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Real-world time-series data can show substantial short-term\nvariability as well as underlying long-term trends. Verbal\ndescriptions from a pilot study, in which participants\ninterpreted a real-world line graph about climate change,\nrevealed that trend interpretation might be problematic\n(Experiment 1). The effect of providing a graph interpretation\nstrategy, via a linguistic warning, on the encoding of longterm\ntrends was then tested using eye tracking (Experiment\n2). The linguistic warning was found to direct visual attention\nto task-relevant information thus enabling more detailed\ninternal representations of the data to be formed. Language\nmay therefore be an effective tool to support users in making\nappropriate spatial inferences about data", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "graph comprehension; language; visual attention" } ], "section": "Papers", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1j5461g2", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Jordan", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Harold", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of East Anglia", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Kenny", "middle_name": "R", "last_name": "Coventry", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of East Anglia", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Irene", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Lorenzoni", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of East Anglia", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Thomas", "middle_name": "F", "last_name": "Shipley", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Temple University", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2015-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/25528/galley/15152/download/" } ] }
