Studying the experience of Pair Programmers
This is the raw data (after anonymization, and after the removal of freeform fields, out of an abundance of caution, so as not to leak any intellectual property) of a research study that simultaneously sampled pair programmers during a day in their pairing using the Experience Sampling Method. This data is provided as-is, in the hopes that it will be useful for other researchers studying the experience-in-consciousness of software makers. Enjoy!
