Data description (abstract)

This data collections consists of 14 interview transcripts from a study investigating the barriers and enablers to data sharing. The study aimed to understand the barriers and enablers experienced by researchers across various disciplines. Participants were asked their experiences of and attitudes towards data sharing.

Semi-structured interviews were conducted in English during November and December 2023. Data were collected using a theoretically-informed 26-item interview schedule (COM-B model: Capability, Opportunity, Motivation – Behaviour; TDF: Theoretical Domains Framework). Fourteen participants, across a range of career levels and disciplines, were recruited to take part in semi-structured interviews focused on data sharing behaviours and their influences.

Transcripts were analysed using thematic template analysis based on the COM-B constructs and TDF domains.

The transcripts are shared for transparency and to support secondary use.
