Abstract

The paper presents the results of a pilot carried out within the European project OpenUp (Opening up new methods, indicators and tools for peer review, dissemination of research results and impact measurement). Aim of the pilot is to investigate the applicability of peer review and/or Open Peer Review (OPR) to datasets in disciplines related to Social sciences. Main emphasis is given to the characteristic and features of data sharing and validation in this heterogeneous scientific field, thus providing the basis for the selection of the community chosen for the pilot. Indications emerging from the analysis of the interviews carried out in the pilot can drive the adoption of data quality assessment, and hence peer review, as well as provide some principles that can incentivize other scientific communities to share their research data.
