Hyderabad, Telangana, India hosts a dataset of 279 drawings from students aged 5–15 at Blue Blocks Montessori School in 2026. The data harmonizes coding from two independent studies—a prompted Biophilia Pilot and an unprompted Drone and Art Day study—and includes anonymized student variables, visual element scores, and condition flags. It was created by Chakraborty, Sreemoyee of the Blue Blocks Micro Research Institute.
Use Cases
- Compare the prevalence of ecological elements like sky, animals, and plants/trees between prompted and unprompted drawing conditions.
- Analyze within-subject variation in artistic content for the 53 students who participated in both studies.
- Investigate correlations between age groups (5–15 years) and the shared element score (0–6) across conditions.
- Study gender differences in the inclusion of human figures or biophilic elements in children's drawings.
- Examine the relationship between observer impression ratings and the Nature vs. Supra-Nature classification.
Strengths
- Includes 279 drawings from 81 students in a prompted condition and 198 drawings from 93 students in an unprompted condition.
- Provides a within-subject paired subset of 163 rows for 53 students who participated in both studies.
- Reports perfect inter-rater reliability across both studies (Cohen's Kappa = 1.0).
- Contains harmonized binary variables for six visual elements and study-specific classifications.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count for the primary combined file is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Data is from a single Montessori school in Hyderabad in 2026, which may limit generalizability.
