Instructions

YouTube recently introduced a feature that shows the "Most replayed" moments to the users. The "Most replayed" score represent moments that are watched the most by YouTube users.

Here you can see an example of a YouTube video and its "Most replayed" score, represented by a grey curve above the timeline. The peaks in the curve correspond to moments that the users watched more often.

Your goal in this survey is to try and guess which shots in a video have higher Most Replayed score.

In order to do this, you will be shown the full video and 20 side-by-side comparisons of shots. You need to pick the shot that you think will be watched more often by an average YouTube user, choosing either "Left" or "Right".

As an attention check, some videos may contain text that prompts you to select "CONTROL". Only select "CONTROL" if asked in the video.

You must answer each of the questions.

Please watch this video carefully (sped-up for convenience).
