| # PageGuide user study — task results |
|
|
| Every answered task from the PageGuide web study that the analysis is currently counting, one |
| row per task, straight from `study_task_results_v2`. |
|
|
| Exported 2026-08-14T05:06:35.500Z · 217 rows · 43 participants. |
|
|
| ## Conditions |
|
|
| Each participant sees both arms, interleaved task by task: |
|
|
| - `nongrounding` — the agent reports an answer with no evidence attached. |
| - `grounding` — the same claims, with citations into the page and saved image crops. |
|
|
| ## Which tasks are counted |
|
|
| | Facet | Rows | Tasks | Selected by | |
| |---|---|---|---| |
| | Find × Text | 65 | EDU-v1, MUFC-V1-TEXT, NVIDA-V1, HARRY-v1 | the committed defaults | |
| | Find × Visual | 45 | TREE-V1, SVSF-V1, TESLA-V1 | the committed defaults | |
| | Guide × Text | 49 | gv2-ms9j3200-u0i9nm, gv2-ms9hwloh-15fuvy, gv2-ed05972e-i5fi3b, gv2-ed35d549-ct71ub | the committed defaults | |
| | Guide × Visual | 58 | gv2-msf1kfhv-o9o8n8, gv2-msf0vpxs-qucehj, gv2-msf0i7ll-hffde9, gv2-msf28nd3-gig8aj | the committed defaults | |
|
|
| Some tasks are held out of a card — a disputed answer key, a duplicate re-recording, a run whose |
| ground truth cannot be scored in full. The table above is exactly what produced this export. |
|
|
| ## What is not here |
|
|
| Participants' free-text notes are omitted, and the session id is replaced by a per-export |
| `participant` integer. Both are deliberate: the notes are the only column that can carry |
| something about a person rather than about a task. |
|
|
| ## Scoring |
|
|
| `score_*_precision` / `score_*_recall` are the raw rates; the dashboard combines them as F1. |
| For Find that is over the passages picked, for Guide the mean of an F1 over the error types |
| named and an F1 over the steps blamed, with a correct "no error" scoring in full on a run that |
| contains none. A null precision means the participant predicted nothing — zero true positives — |
| so its F1 is 0 rather than missing. |
