Abstract

Sharing research data is fundamental to providing access to this data. So, it´s essential knowing the researcher’s perception about sharing of their research data in order to verify the existing barriers and the stimuli that can be developed to support their sharing. For that, an online survey a research was conducted with 46 Portuguese neuroscience researchers. It was found that the majority of respondents (78.3%) never shared research data in repositories. The reasons for data retention were: 1) to lose publication opportunities (44.4%), 2) to misuse or interpret data (41.7%), 3) to ignore repositories to share, (6%) and 4) lack of knowledge about the possibility of these data being opened due to confidential information (30.6%).
