Sin of Omission - Coded Data and List and Description of Immigration and Refugee Board files in Data Set

This data set comprises 316 decisions of the Immigration and Refugee Board from the first half of 2016. They are coded for the nature of the adjudicators' credibility conclusions and for whether the adjudicators justified these conclusions with reference to a set of factors relating to the claimant's omission of information from their Basis of Claim Form. The sheets list and describe the Immigration and Refugee Board files included in the data set for the study. Ethics Statement: This study did not require Research Ethics Board approval because it consists of legal judgments in the Public Domain. See: Hilary Evans Cameron, "Sin of Omission: Exploring a Key Credibility Inference in Canadian Refugee Status Rejections" (forthcoming, Osgoode Hall Law Journal).本数据集收录了2016年上半年移民与难民委员会（Immigration and Refugee Board）的316份裁决文书。本数据集针对裁决员的可信度认定结论性质，以及裁决员是否参照申诉人在其《索赔依据表格（Basis of Claim Form）》中遗漏信息相关的一系列因素对该结论作出论证，进行了编码处理。本数据集附带的表格列明并介绍了本研究所使用的移民与难民委员会相关案卷。伦理声明：本研究无需研究伦理委员会（Research Ethics Board）审批，因其所涵盖的内容均为公共领域内的法律判决。详见：希拉里·埃文斯·卡梅隆（Hilary Evans Cameron）所著《遗漏之过：探究加拿大难民身份驳回案件中的一项核心可信度推理》（即将发表于《奥斯古德霍尔法律期刊（Osgoode Hall Law Journal）》）。
