The short answer: Metadata are pieces of information that make studies DISCOVERABLE & USABLE

The long answer: Data without metadata are virtually useless. Metadata help you make sense of the data.

Metadata for Research Data
Video recording of the webinar "Metadata for Research Data" that took place on February 2, 2022, 10:00 to 11:30, online, as part of the event series "Research Data Management in Austria".
Metadata and documentation of research data are key aspects of implementing the FAIR data principles. Metadata is information that describes an object and puts your research data into context. When used effectively, metadata help with (re)usability, discoverability, and storage of research results. What does this mean for your research practice and how can you describe your data?
This webinar provides an introduction to the definition and use of metadata in research data management. We will cover FAIR research data as a resource and demonstrate strategies to efficiently discover scientific datasets. We ...

What are metadata?
Your phone calls, text messages, or social media posts can say a lot about you - even when their content isn't visible. And if this creates risks in times of peace, imagine the risks in times of war.

Knowledge clip: Metadata
In this knowledge clip we talk about metadata. Why do we need it and what different types of metadata exist? And how is metadata created and where can be stored? We also have a look at metadata in data repositories and provide a brief explanation about metadata standards.

" Research Data and their Metadata" is an educational video on research data management. The video explains briefly the concept metadata and where they are important during the research data lifecycle. Using the example of a data table, the terms metadata and metadata schema are explained. Conventions on metadata make the results of different researchers comparable, traceable and interoperable.
The video also gives examples of metadata that are relevant at different points in the life cycle. The metadata management can for instance be recorded in a data management plan. Data producers, project members as well as reusers oft he data can then find all important informati...

Research Data Sharing: Metadata, Data Standards, and Documentation Best Practices
Explore how data management and sharing (DMS) encourage principles of findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reusability. Specific to the NIH DMS plan, attendees will identify relevant metadata elements and standards and develop sample documentation to prepare data for sharing via a repository.

What are Metadata?
*particularly pertaining to ICPSR's studies
SLIDE 2
The short answer: Metadata are pieces of information that make studies DISCOVERABLE & USABLE
SLIDE 3
The long answer: Data without metadata are virtually useless. Metadata help you make sense of the data.
SLIDE 4
Are the spaces and commas important?
What do these numbers mean?
Where did the numbers come from?
At ICPSR, metadata appear in two forms: INFORMATION ON THE STUDY HOMEPAGE & DOCUMENTATION ACCOMPANYING THE STUDY
SLIDE 5
STUDY HOMEPAGE Who, what, when, where, and why
WHO...is represented in the data? Who did the study? Who funded it?
WHAT...is the study about? What variables are included? What was the sampling methodology?
WHEN...was the information collected?
WHERE...were the data collected?
WHY...and how was the study done?
SLIDE 6
DOCUMENTATION includes:
codebook
-list of variables and how to find them
-frequency tables (ex. "How many immigrants are represented?")
user guide
-how/when to use weights
-how data relate to others in a series
-how to extract specific subgroups
questionnaires
SLIDE 7
Effective Searching is possible because of study- & variable-level details (Metadata!) included with each study
SLIDE 8
Data without Metadata are like a Peanut Butter & Jelly Sandwich WITHOUT THE BREAD
(Difficult to use, messy, undefined)
