CESSDA Webinar: Making Social Science Research Transparent
Channel: CESSDA Training
Date: 08/11/2022

High-quality data have the potential to be reused in many ways. Archiving and publishing your data properly is at the core of making your data FAIR and will enable both your future self as well as others to get the most out of your data. More and more scientific journals are implementing open data policies, leading to researchers' dilemmas about where, when and how to publish the data. Consequently, the way that social science research is conducted and disseminated is gradually changing. A crucial element of that change is research transparency. 

After an introduction to the topic, panelists presented the processes, policies and tools implemented for facilitating transparent research in the social sciences. 

They discussed the processes that need to be in place for an open research cycle, the role of data archives and repositories in sharing research data and materials, tools for reproducing research findings in practice, collaborations between archives and social science journals, and implementing Transparency and Openness Promotion Guidelines in different social science disciplines.
