Projects
Here are the projects and people joining the miniWOW PDX support cohort! To be updated at the end of the workshop!.
Why not Open Science? Listening as a means to guide action.
Daniela Saderi (USA) and Amie Fairs (Netherlands)
We will develop a survey to explore the underlying reasons for failure to adopt open-science (OS) practices in academia. The survey will seek to:
1) Understand researchers’ knowledge of and engagement with OS practices; 2) Learn about obstacles that prevent them from engaging in OS practices; 3) Ask what would incentivize them to adopt OS practices.
First we will test the survey in our home institutions, but our goal is to distribute the survey to other academic institutions across the globe.
