http://www.surveygizmo.eu/s3/90026803/Survey-of-the-OpenUP-project

by 17 February 2017.

THE GOAL OF THIS SURVEY:

There has been a global shift towards making research findings openly accessible and free of charge to use.

Open science represents a new approach to the scientific process, based on cooperative work and new ways of diffusing knowledge.

• What implications does this have for the currently established peer review process andimpact measurement/research metrics?
• How to effectively disseminate one's research, and through which channels?

The goal of this survey is to perform a systematic landscaping of the researcher community's current perceptions and practices in these areas.

Your answers are very valuable as they will inform national and EU policymakers in their work on developing open science and open access policies. 

OpenUP will also develop a set of practical guidelines on innovative peer review, impact measurement and research dissemination practices which will be openly shared with the scientific community.    It should take, on average, around 20-25 minutes to complete all questions.

Please note that this is a voluntary survey.

Our strict provisions ensure that your answers will remain confidential and shall be used only in aggregated form.
