Hi,
Questions about the impact of open access come up pretty often when I'm
teaching Git, so I am looking for pointers to well-founded studies (not
opinion pieces) that I can cite as answers (and to dispel myths). For
example, [1] seems to show that making data openly accessible does *not*
lead to you being scooped, while [2,3,4] shows that open access
publications have a higher citation count than closed access
equivalents. What else do you cite? Please add comments to
https://github.com/swcarpentry/website/issues/368 rather than replying
to this message; I'll summarize and re-post.
Thanks,
Greg
