| ## Dataset Creation | |
| ### Curation Rationale | |
| The dataset was curated with the intention to study sentiment analysis of drug experience and the transferability of models among different domains and data sources. | |
| ### Source Data | |
| #### Initial Data Collection and Normalization | |
| The dataset was collected by crawling online pharmaceutical review sites. No additional preprocessing or normalization has been conducted on the data provided in this repository; it is presented in its original form as obtained from the source. | |
| #### Who are the source language producers? | |
| The reviews were written by patients and users of the drugs.com website. | |
| ### Annotations | |
| #### Annotation process | |
| No additional annotation process was followed as the data contains self-reported patient ratings. | |
| #### Who are the annotators? | |
| N/A | |
| ### Personal and Sensitive Information | |
| The dataset contains sensitive information in the form of patient drug reviews. | |
| ## Considerations for Using the Data | |
| ### Social Impact of Dataset | |
| The dataset can be used to study the impact of drugs on patients, which can be beneficial for healthcare research. | |
| ### Discussion of Biases | |
| No known biases but users should consider the self-reported nature of the data. | |
| ### Other Known Limitations | |
| The dataset may not generalize well to drugs or conditions not represented in the data. | |
| ## Additional Information | |
