The Shared Playlist as Suggestion Box

Twenty-four Fridays of open-edit and single-curator control, and what the skip button logged

A research poster from the School of Continuous Improvement alternates an open edit link and a single curator on one social club's Friday-afternoon playlist across 24 weeks, finding skips per hour level at 4.83 and 4.80 (difference 0.03, 95% CI -0.80 to 0.86, inside the margin set in advance). From the first Friday of term the University freezes every shared playlist it operates, withdraws the edit link and disables the skip control, with no override.
