In addition to research data, is there any other information expected when contributing data to NDAR?
In general, NDAR is interested in receiving non identifying human subjects research data. To help clarify contributed data, NDAR also allows an investigator to upload/link relevant documentation describing the contributed data. In addition to project summaries, data collection methods and exclusion criteria can be made available in NDAR and shared. Such information is invaluable in helping others understand the contributed data and is expected. However, the decision on what data should/should not be provided is best made by the contributing investigator.
