Performing user interface studies and logging user interactions is commonplace in the Interactive Information Retrieval field (IIR). As a result, the LogUI framework was developed to make logging such interactions an easier task. However, this framework does not come with any visualization tool, requiring the researcher to analyze their data separately. We present a generalized data dashboard that allows the researcher to perform basic exploratory analysis on their data, without needing to parse their logging data themselves. We gathered a set of important logging metrics from existing user interface experiments and based our dashboard design on these metrics. Finally, we verified the usability and effectiveness of the dashboard by interviewing a set of IIR researchers and show that we developed an effective dashboard.
