Sowing the seed: Incentives and motivations for sharing research data, a researcher’s perspective

Knowledge Exchange have just released a study on incentives and motivations for researchers to share research data based on case studies with researchers from 5 disciplines. They also looked into career stages and implications for willingness to share data.


Some interesting recommendations for research funders, institutions and repositories eg
- Provide data resources that combine data and related rich context such as publications and other outputs
-  Develop national registries of research data that link to journals, repositories, etc.

But there are a lot more and worth having a look at.
