For all files brief column labels can be found in row #2. 
In many cases these brief column labels are self-explanatory. 
In other cases, more information about the nature of the content of a column is required. In these cases, the additional information is provided in row #1.

In the data file for Experiment 5, the columns contain the choice made by each participant, the levels of the between subjects variables, and several demographic responses.

In the other data files, the columns contain the attitude difference scores of each participant, the levels of the between subjects variables, and and several demographic responses.
