Theme of Interest

This project attempts to perform analysis from the 101 Innovations Research Tools Survey data set. With so many online tools available, the ones that researchers use vary across their roles and field. We try to establish a correlation between the characteristics of a researcher to the tools he/she uses, and subsequently, if exposure to certain tools have any bearing on whether they support the notion of open access, particularly pertaining to the area of science.

Investigative Questions

Initial Questions

  • Is there a relationship between discipline and tools used?
  • Is there a relationship between role and tools used?
  • Is there a correlation between characteristics of a researcher/the tools they use to the support of open access? And if so, what are they?
