Demographic Characteristics of a Pre-Service Teacher Gamification Study Group

Demographic data for 122 pre-service teachers from a state university's Faculty of Education, collected as part of a Solomon four-group experimental study. The dataset was created by Funda Uysal and published on figshare under a CC-BY-4.0 license, with a last update recorded for April 30, 2026. It supports research on the effects of gamification-supported teaching on curriculum literacy.

Use Cases

• Analyze participant demographics for an experimental study on gamification in teacher education.
• Study the relationship between demographic factors and outcomes in curriculum literacy research.
• Replicate or meta-analyze the Solomon four-group experimental design methodology.
• Investigate baseline characteristics for groups exposed to gamification versus traditional teaching methods.

Strengths

• Dataset is small (5.5 KB), facilitating quick inspection and download.
• Data originates from a controlled Solomon four-group experimental design with 122 participants.
• Clear licensing (CC-BY-4.0) permits reuse and redistribution.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset's scope is limited to a single study group from one university faculty.
