Code for my Honours thesis on open science practice

This repository contains the R code for my honours thesis analysis. It uses the drake package and Miles McBain's dflow for structuring the file base.

Please see here for the drake code plan. Each file in the R folder is used as a function in the plan.

This code cannot be run on its own!

As I do not have ownership over the data used, the data/ folder is not part of this repository. If permission is given for the data to be uploaded, it will likely be uploaded to the Open Science Framework.

The data files that are missing are:

• TOP factor data

  • This can be obtained from: https://osf.io/qatkz/

• Sherpa/ROMEO data

  • This can be obtained from: https://v2.sherpa.ac.uk/romeo/
  • I use an API call in fetch_sherpa to obtain the journals for analysis. An api key is needed for this to work (see get_key).

• Journal ranking data

  • This can be obtained from Scopus: https://www.scopus.com/sources
  • Have to export the first sheet of the xlsb as 'CiteScore.csv', as R cannot parse xlsb files well.

• Survey data

  • This cannot currently be obtained without permission. If uploaded, will be on the OSF.
