New business models for open research
No full textPresentation at Open Repositories 2014, Helsinki, Finland, June 9-13, 2014General Track Papers and PanelsThe session was recorded and is available for watching (this presentation starts at 0:51:22)Responding to the need for open access to data, a variety of new models for sustainability of repositories have arisen, in response to different contexts. What lessons have been taken onboard in response to repositories with unsuccessful business models, and how is the academic community responding to new government mandates for better persistence and availability of publicly funded data?Hahnel, Mark (Figshare, United States of America)Vision, Todd (Dryad)Lyle, Jared (openICSPR

Statistical Agencies Using DDI Metadata Standards: Promoting Transparency and Reusability of Data
No full textStatistical agencies are seeing a much more federated and complex data ecosystem where data flows from one organization to another. Metadata standards are key to facilitate this movement, including through greater automation to collect, manage, produce, and disseminate data. Metadata standards simplify sharing, reduce development time, and promote transparency across agencies, especially by ensuring that similar things are described the same way.
This webinar included three practical implementations of how using DDI metadata standards has benefited large statistical agencies. In the first presentation, Flavio Rizzolo (on behalf of Chantal Vaillancourt) discussed Statistics Canada’s modernization towards a robust standards-enabled Enterprise Metadata Ecosystem, which is the foundation for organizational modernization through enabling metadata enabled automated business process, interoperability of data and metadata and transparency to Canadians. Next, Christophe Dzikowski discussed how the DDI can be used in an active manner to drive surveys. Finally, Dan Gillman discussed how DDI can be applied to describe complex survey microdata and multi-dimensional time series. Jared Lyle introduced and moderated the Webinar
The Enduring Value of Social Science Research: The Use and Reuse of Primary Research Data
No full textThis paper was presented at “The Organisation, Economics and Policy of Scientific Research” workshop, Torino, Italy, in April, 2010. See: http://www.carloalberto.org/files/brick_dime_strike_workshopagenda_april2010.pdf.The public-use data analyzed in this paper: Pienta, Amy M., and Jared Lyle. Data Sharing in the Social Sciences, 2009 [United States] Public Use Data. ICPSR29941-v1. Ann Arbor, MI: Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research [distributor], 2016-12-15. https://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR29941.v1The goal of this paper is to examine the extent to which social science research data are shared and assess whether data sharing affects research productivity tied to the research data themselves. We construct a database from administrative records containing information about thousands of social science studies that have been conducted over the last 40 years. Included in the database are descriptions of social science data collections funded by the National Science Foundation and the National Institutes of Health. A survey of the principal investigators of a subset of these social science awards was also conducted. We report that very few social science data collections are preserved and disseminated by an archive or institutional repository. Informal sharing of data in the social sciences is much more common. The main analysis examines publication metrics that can be tied to the research data collected with NSF and NIH funding – total publications, primary publications (including PI), and secondary publications (non-research team). Multivariate models of count of publications suggest that data sharing, especially sharing data through an archive, leads to many more times the publications than not sharing data. This finding is robust even when the models are adjusted for PI characteristics, grant award features, and institutional characteristics.National Library of Medicine (R01 LM009765). The creation of the LEADS database was also supported by the following research projects at ICPSR: P01 HD045753, U24 HD048404, and P30 AG004590.http://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/78307/1/pienta_alter_lyle_100331.pdf-

ICPSR: A Consortial Model to Advance and Expand Social and Behavioral Research
No full textThe Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR) was founded over 50 years ago "to further the development of research in political science" (Miller 1963:11). Since that summer of 1962, the scope and range of services ICPSR offers has expanded significantly to encompass the wider social and behavioral research community, and from a handful of data collections to thousands. With over 750 consortial members from around the world, ICPSR is now a leader in preserving, curating, and providing access to scientific data so others can reuse the data and validate research findings. Much of the success of ICPSR can be traced back to the consortial model upon which the organization was founded, with members providing funding, input, and a sense of community. This article describes the history and current status of the consortium, and discusses upcoming challenges and opportunities
American Economic Association (AEA) Data & Code Repository at openICPSR
No full textIn 2019, the American Economic Association (AEA) adopted a Data and Code Availability Policy “to improve the reproducibility and transparency of materials supporting research published in the AEA journals by providing improved guidance on the types of materials required, increased quality control, and more review earlier in the publication process.” The AEA initiative is one of the most comprehensive reproducibility and data/code sharing initiatives in the social sciences. In this presentation, we review the AEA workflow, including how the AEA assesses compliance with the policy and the accuracy of the information by running code to reproduce the reported results. We also demonstrate the newly established AEA Data and Code Repository at the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR), which facilitates the AEA's workflow and review. Each data collection in the repository receives a persistent digital identifier (DOI), as well as descriptive metadata to increase findability, including JEL codes and subject terms. Data collections are also linked back to the journal article. Additionally, the AEA migrated their entire back archive of more than 3,000 data and code supplements to the AEA Data and Code Repository at ICPSR. This represents almost two decades of required data sharing associated with AEA journal publications.http://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/156061/1/Lyle ICPSR MIDAS Reproducibility Challenge 2020.pdfDescription of Lyle ICPSR MIDAS Reproducibility Challenge 2020.pdf : PresentationSEL
