Report on Integration of Data and Publications Grant Agreement no.: 261530 Where do you currently store your research data ? (multiple answers possible) Graph 2: Source: PARSE.Insight 2 survey, held among researchers internationally, N = 1202 researchers But this number is now growing fast, as the following evidence shows from a recent study into Medical Journals 6 . In that study it was found that for a sample of 28 journals in medicine, sampled from 138 high-impact medical journals, the number of articles carrying supplementary data files roughly doubled every 2 years and is now over 25 %. Compared to 2003, when 32 % of the journals provided the possibility to add web-based supplements to an article, this percentage had grown to 50 % in 2005, and to 64 % in 2009. The number of articles offering online supplements, increased in that same period for these journals from 7% to 14% to the already mentioned 25%, respectively. There was also an increase in the percentage of journals for which at least 20% of articles have online-only supplements (4% in 2003 to 11% in 2005 to 32% in 2009). A marked increase in the number of video supplements was observed, while the largest share of the supplementary files is for data represented in supplementary graphs and tables. The number of articles with supplementary tables doubled every 2 years (10 to 22 to 55 to 100 from 2003 to 2009), as did the number of supplementary tables (29 to 57 to 149 to 317, the last two numbers referring to 2007 and 2009, respectively). From the PARSE.Insight2 survey, we also know that > 90 % of journals accepts supplementary material . The graph here below presents the responses from different publishers (small versus large). If the number of journals is factored in, it appears that >90 % accepts supplementary files containing research data. 6 See as source: http://www.annemergmed.com/article/S0196-0644(10)01648-3/fulltext#sec3 Opportunities for Data Exchange (ODE) –www.ode-project.eu 14
Report on Integration of Data and Publications Grant Agreement no.: 261530 Can authors submit their underlying digital research data with their publication to you? Graph 3, source PARSE.Insight 2 , N= 134 publishers 1.3. Why the relationship between data and publications is so important Whereas the data presented in the study quoted in the previous paragraph5 show the substantial amount of supplementary data added to journal articles, as well as its high growth rates, there is every reason to expect even more. The survey of PARSE.Insight 2 enquired where researchers would like to submit their research data and the responses gave the following picture (graph 4): Next to the most popular category of Data Archives (of their organisation: 81 %, in their subject field: 60 %), more than half of the researchers (51 %) would like to submit their data to publishers. Of particular interest here is the marked difference between the most popular categories in terms of desired destinations, Graph 4, when compared to the actual destinations, Graph 2. Archives and publishers are the most favored, but remarkably the least used nowadays: in current practice, institutional archives score below 20 % , subject archives below 10%, publishers score a little closer to but still below 20 %.
