Journals' policies of storage and reuse of raw research data and their impact in five scientific areas

Resumen del póster presentado al Workshop on Informetric and Scientometric Research (SIG/MET), celebrado en Copenague (Dinamarca) el 14 de octubre de 2016.[Background]: In order to enhance the fast dissemination of information and exchange of knowledge, it is required to make available for researchers both scientific literature and research raw data. The Open Access movement has allowed accessing the full text of many articles, thereby facilitating universal access to scientific advances. A further step is to open the raw data that support research to be shared and reused (data-sharing). Many scientific manuscripts consist of full text plus supplementary data to support the presented information. These additional data are too extensive to include them in the full text of the article, but some researchers may require these data to ensure that the experiment has been correctly conducted (Murray-Rust, 2008). Moreover, these data can also be useful, if reused, to supplement other work, make comparisons or generate new hypotheses. The purpose of this study is to analyse open-data policies concerning the availability of raw data in journals included in 5 subject categories (SC) of the Journal Citation Reports (JCR) and the relation of these policies with the impact factor and the quartile.Supported by the National R+D+I of the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness of the Spanish Government (projects: CSO2012-39632-C02-01 and CSO2015-65594-C2-2-R) and 2015-Networks of Excellence call (project CSO2015-71867-REDT).Peer Reviewe
