Doing ESRC Data Better: Survey Data, 2023

The collection consists of data gathered as part of the independent review by a University of Dundee team of the Economic and Social Research Centre's research data policy in 2023, from a survey of the ESRC research data community.

The documentation consists of 4 appendices as follows:
Appendix 1 Survey responses: tables showing frequency of responses to each of the statements;
Appendix 2 Survey respondent characteristics;
Appendix 3 Survey questions; and
Appendix 4 Focus group guiding questions and topic guides.

The data consists of the individual responses received from the participants as part of the survey work package.<p>Combining three project stages and a mixed methods approach, we will conduct a robust review of the current ESRC policy and research, policy and legal landscape, solicit views from interested parties and construct an evidence base on which to make informed recommendations for an updated ESRC data policy for implementation. The project team is led by Professor Angela Daly, international expert in data governance and protection and recent Chair of the Independent Expert Group on Unlocking the Value of Data to the Scottish Government. The team brings interdisciplinary research, knowledge exchange and practitioner expertise across ESRC disciplines and data infrastructures to reviewing the current ESRC data policy and recommending updates to it in light of stakeholder feedback and views that we will seek through a comprehensive consultation process involving a survey and focus groups/interviews. We will also ensure that best practice in social science research data policies from international examples are identified and inform our work, to produce an updated ESRC data policy that is fit-for-purpose, easily implementable and future-proofed. The recommendations for an updated policy will be in line with the highest legal, ethical and best practice standards in the UK and internationally, and cohere with wider UKRI data policies and those of other relevant organisations in the UK and internationally. We will also suggest reasonable and feasible resources needed to implement the updated policy in practice.</p>

该数据集收录了2023年邓迪大学（University of Dundee）团队对经济与社会研究中心（Economic and Social Research Centre，ESRC）研究数据政策开展独立评估过程中，从ESRC研究数据社区调研中收集的相关数据。

本次数据集附带的文档包含4个附录，具体如下：
附录1 调研问卷回复：展示各表述项回复频次的统计表；
附录2 调研受访者特征；
附录3 调研问卷题目；
附录4 焦点小组引导问题与主题指南。

数据集主体包含本次调研工作包中从参与者处收集到的个体回复数据。

本项目结合三个研究阶段与混合研究方法，将对ESRC现行政策与研究、政策及法律环境开展严谨评估，征询利益相关方意见，并构建证据基础，从而为制定经充分论证的ESRC数据政策更新方案提供依据，以推动政策落地实施。本项目团队由数据治理与保护领域国际专家、曾任苏格兰政府解锁数据价值独立专家小组主席的安吉拉·戴利（Angela Daly）教授领衔。团队汇集了跨学科研究、知识转化及实务专长，覆盖ESRC相关学科与数据基础设施领域，将通过涵盖调研与焦点小组/访谈的全面咨询流程征集利益相关方反馈与意见，以此评估ESRC现行数据政策并提出更新建议。同时，我们将梳理国际社会科学研究数据政策的最佳实践案例并融入本次工作，最终制定出适配需求、易于落地且具备前瞻性的ESRC数据政策。本次政策更新建议将符合英国及国际范围内最高标准的法律、伦理与最佳实践规范，并与英国研究与创新署（UKRI）及英国境内外其他相关机构的现行数据政策保持一致。此外，我们还将提出在实践中落地更新政策所需的合理可行的资源方案。
