Qualitative Data Repository

The Qualitative Data Repository (QDR) is a dedicated archive for storing and sharing digital data (and accompanying documentation) generated or collected through qualitative and multi-method research in the social sciences. QDR provides search tools to facilitate the discovery of data, and also serves as a portal to material beyond its own holdings, with links to U.S. and international archives. The repository’s initial emphasis is on political science. Four beliefs underpin the repository's mission: data that can be shared and reused should be; evidence-based claims should be made transparently; teaching is enriched by the use of well-documented data; and rigorous social science requires common understandings of its research methods.定性数据仓储（Qualitative Data Repository，QDR）是专为存储与分享社会科学领域质性研究及多方法研究所产生或采集的数字数据及其配套文档而设立的专属档案库。该仓储提供检索工具以助力数据发现，同时亦可作为自身馆藏之外相关资源的门户，附带指向美国及国际各类档案机构的链接。该仓储最初的侧重领域为政治学。支撑其使命的四大核心理念为：可共享且可复用的数据理应被共享复用；基于证据的学术主张应透明呈现；使用文档完备的数据可优化教学实践；严谨的社会科学研究需要对其研究方法达成普遍共识。
