Which studies require a data archive?

Question

Which studies must be archived and which not?

Answer

The following studies always require a data deposit in the repository:

  1. All publications in a scientific journal or book where GELIFES or a GELIFES group is the work address of the first or equal author (also in case of multiple addresses of the first or equal author)
  2. All MSc reports done within GELIFES, supervised by a GELIFES staff member
  3. External MSc reports done at another institute, but with a GELIFES staff member being responsible for the final grading
  4. All PhD theses done within GELIFES, with a GELIFES professor as first promotor
  5. All external PhD theses (e.g. done at a KNAW or NWO institute) with a GELIFES professor as first promotor

NOTE: chapters in a PhD thesis that have been previously published in a journal/book and have been archived as a publication, must be archived (again) as part of the PhD thesis archive. Similarly, chapters of a PhD thesis that have been archived as part of the PhD thesis archive and are published in a journal/book at a later moment, must be archived again as a publication.

For the following studies a data deposit in the repository is voluntarily:

  1. All other unpublished studies done within GELIFES (e.g., pilot studies)
  2. Publications with a first author from a different institute than GELIFES
  3. External MSc studies where the student temporarily registers at a different university for the duration of the study
  4. PhD theses with a non-GELIFES professor as first promotor
