README
====================
This repository contains the data and documentation for a research project. It includes the dataset,
which is provided in CSV format and the original PDF with the survey answers.

Research Information
====================
Terminology of e-Oral Health: Consensus Report of the IADR’s e-Oral Health Network Terminology
Task Force. Authors reported multiple definitions of e-oral health and related terms, and used several definitions
interchangeably, like mhealth, teledentistry, teleoral medicine and telehealth. The International
Association of Dental Research e-Oral Health Network (e-OHN) aimed to establish a consensus on
terminology related to digital technologies used in oral healthcare.

This dataset contains data from a survey about digital oral health. The survey asked participants to provide their definition of various terms related to digital oral health, as well as their agreement with the provided definitions. The dataset also includes three figures that the participants were asked to review.

The purpose of this dataset is to collect data on the public's understanding of digital oral health terms and to identify areas where there may be confusion or misinterpretation. The data from this dataset could be used to develop educational materials or to improve the way that digital oral health information is communicated to the public.

Additional notes
====================
The data is not currently cleaned or preprocessed.

Dataset
====================
The dataset file, named "dataset.csv," is in this repository. It contains the raw anonymized data
collected from the participants in a structured format. Each row represents a respondent, and the
columns correspond to different variables.

Codebook
====================
The codebook file, named "codebook.pdf," is also included in this repository. It provides a
comprehensive description of the variables present in the dataset. The codebook outlines each
variable's meaning, type, and possible values, allowing users to understand and analyze the data
effectively.

Metadata
====================
No metadata is provided

Files
====================
01_readme.txt this readme file

Usage
====================
To work with the dataset, you can download the "dataset.csv" file and import it into your preferred
software or programming language for analysis. The codebook provides valuable information about
the variables, allowing you to understand the data structure and make informed decisions during your
analysis.
Please note that while every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy and quality of the data, it is
