T-MIS: Trainee Feedback on an Automated Mentor System in Uganda, 2024-2025

A 2024-2025 cross-sectional study of 40 clinical research trainees in Uganda evaluating their experience with the Mentor–Trainee Information System (T-MIS). The dataset likely contains survey and interview results from 30 respondents, analyzed for system utility in research administration and career development. The data was authored by Aidah Nanvuma and shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Analyzing user satisfaction scores for digital research administration tools based on reported metrics for information clarity and non-discriminatory language.
• Modeling factors influencing trainee engagement with mentorship platforms based on demographic and field diversity data.
• Studying the adoption and utility of in-house built software for institutional capacity building based on reported usage duration and frequency.

Strengths

• Includes specific performance metrics, such as a 78% rating for information clarity and an 89% rating for non-discriminatory language.
• Provides detailed demographic breakdowns, including age groups, gender, and trainee level (Master's, PhD, post-doctoral).
• Data collection methods are explicitly described, involving a 15-minute online survey and 30–45-minute key informant interviews.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The sample is geographically concentrated, with nearly all participants (96.7%) based in Kampala.
