Time-use data can often be perceived as inaccessible by non-specialists due to their unique format. This article introduces the ATUS-X diary visualization tool that aims to address the accessibility issue and expand the user base of time-use data by providing users with opportunity to quickly visualize their own subsamples of the American Time Use Survey Data Extractor (ATUS-X). Complementing the ATUS-X, the online tool provides an easy point-and-click interface, making data exploration readily accessible in a visual form. The tool can benefit a wider academic audience, policy-makers, non-academic researchers, and journalists by removing accessibility barriers to time use diaries.
由于其独特的格式，非专业人士通常认为时间使用数据难以获取。本文介绍了ATUS-X 日记可视化工具，旨在通过为用户提供快速可视化其美国时间使用调查数据提取器 (ATUS-X) 子样本的机会，解决可访问性问题并扩大时间使用数据的用户基础。该在线工具补充了 ATUS-X，提供了一个简单的点击接口，以可视化形式轻松实现数据探索。该工具可以使更广泛的学术受众、政策制定者、非学术研究人员和记者受益，消除时间使用日记的获取障碍。
