What Can I Do with this Data Point? Towards Modeling Legal and Ethical Aspects of Linguistic Data Collection and (Re-)use

Annett Jorschick, Paul T. Schrader, Hendrik Buschmeier


Abstract
Linguistic data often inherits characteristics that limit open science practices such as data publication, sharing, and reuse. Part of the problem is researchers’ uncertainty about the legal requirements, which need to be considered at the beginning of study planning, when consent forms for participants, ethics applications, and data management plans need to be written. This paper presents a newly funded project that will develop a research data management infrastructure that will provide automated support to researchers in the planning, collection, storage, use, reuse, and sharing of data, taking into account ethical and legal aspects to encourage open science practices.
