Reliability and Quality Scores for Dietary Weight Loss Videos on Chinese Platforms

300 videos from BiliBili, TikTok, and Kwai were assessed in February 2024 using the Global Quality Score (GQS) and modified DISCERN (mDISCERN) tools. The dataset likely contains scores and video characteristics like duration and engagement metrics. It was created by Shiqi Zhou and is licensed under CC-BY-4.0.

Use Cases

• Analyze correlations between video duration and quality scores based on the reported r=0.41 and r=0.32 values.
• Compare information reliability across platforms based on the reported average GQS and mDISCERN scores.
• Study engagement metric relationships based on the strong correlations reported between likes, saves, and comments.
• Assess the prevalence of low-quality health information on Chinese social media platforms.
• Benchmark video content quality for dietary weight loss interventions.

Strengths

• Assessment based on 300 videos from three major Chinese platforms.
• Quality evaluated using two established tools: Global Quality Score (GQS) and modified DISCERN (mDISCERN).
• Includes specific statistical results like correlation coefficients (e.g., r=0.41) and p-values.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data is limited to a cross-sectional sample from February 2024 using a single keyword.
