Social Data Repository RDS

Full Name of the Institution: Institute of Philosophy and Sociology, PAS | Robert Zajonc Institute for Social Studies, UW | Interdisciplinary Centre for Mathematical and Computational Modelling UW


A domain-specific digital repository of social data, the repository makes quantitative and qualitative social data available on the Internet. It can be used by researchers who would like to share their research data or conduct secondary data analysis, academics interested in using the data for educational purposes, and others seeking social data for various reasons.

Each dataset published in the repository is assigned a DOI identifier. Datasets can be versioned and linked to other research outputs, such as publications. Datasets are subject to verification.

The repository is run by the Interdisciplinary Centre for Mathematical and Computational Modelling at the University of Warsaw, in cooperation with the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology at the Polish Academy of Sciences and the Robert Zajonc Institute for Social Studies at the University of Warsaw.

The service is available at rds.icm.edu.pl.
