The study is a wee bit too small to be submitted to a conference paper, but too large to be completely forgotten, so I’m posting it online. The study tried to study the occurrence of choice overload in a movie recommender system and whether or not diversifying the set of recommendations alleviates choice overload. The results were not really conclusive, but good enough to base a second study on. And enough questions rose to base a master thesis research on. So go ahead and read it if you want to.
