“…Trustworthy Repositories Audit and Certification: Criteria and Checklist (TRAC)/ISO 16363 and Data Seal of Approval (DSA) are some well-known efforts to preserve and provide access to trusted content through repository certification. Since Prieto (2009) argued the need to understand trust from users' perspectives, several research studies have also demonstrated how a repository's intermediary role contributes to data reusers' trust (Donaldson and Conway, 2015;Frank et al, 2017;Yakel et al, 2013;Yoon, 2014a). While past studies underscore the significance of users' trust in repository and curation activities, they also present the need to investigate users' trust in the larger context of data reuse.…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to quantitatively examine factors of trust in data reuse from the reusers’ perspectives. Design/methodology/approach This study utilized a survey method to test the proposed hypotheses and to empirically evaluate the research model, which was developed to examine the relationship each factor of trust has with reusers’ actual trust during data reuse. Findings This study found that the data producer (H1) and data quality (H3) were significant, as predicted, while scholarly community (H3) and data intermediary (H4) were not significantly related to reusers’ trust in data. Research limitations/implications Further disciplinary specific examinations should be conducted to complement the study findings and fully generalize the study findings. Practical implications The study finding presents the need for engaging data producers in the process of data curation, preferably beginning in the early stages and encouraging them to work with curation professionals to ensure data management quality. The study finding also suggests the need for re-defining the boundaries of current curation work or collaborating with other professionals who can perform data quality assessment that is related to scientific and methodological rigor. Originality/value By analyzing theoretical concepts in empirical research and validating the factors of trust, this study fills this gap in the data reuse literature.

“…However, much less research has been done regarding the user side despite the call for an understanding of users' trust of TDRs. Prieto (2009) reviewed the concept of trust in online environments and TDRs and underscored the significance of user communities' perceptions of trust. He argued that ''user communities are the most valuable component in ensuring a digital repository's trustworthiness'' (p. 603) and called for empirical research measuring users' perceptions of trust as a factor contributing to TDRs.…”

While repositories' efforts to build trustworthy digital repositories (TDRs) led to the establishment of ISO standards, much less research has been done regarding the user's side, despite calls for an understanding of users' trust of TDRs. In order to learn about users' perspectives on trust in digital repositories, the present study investigated users' definitions of trust and factors that influence users' trust development, particularly addressing the users of three data repositories in the United States. A total of 19 participants were interviewed in this study. The results of this study indicate that users' definition of trust is largely based on a lack of deception, when it comes down to the specific context of data repositories. Regarding factors influencing the development of users' trust in repositories, organizational attributes, user communities (recommendations and frequent use), past experiences, repository processes (documentation, data cleaning, and quality checking), and users' perception of the repository roles were identified.

This paper examines various models of academic publishing and considers their relative advantages for authors, readers, academic institutions and society. Relevant factors in driving authors’ choice of journal include the journal’s scope, reputation and publishing model used. Authors’ choices are shaped by the expectations of academic institutions and strongly determine both access to readers and the benefits to society. From an analysis of 174 journals in the tourism and hospitality field, four publication models are identified and compared: ‘subscription-only’ and the ‘Green’, ‘Gold’ and ‘Platinum’ open-access models. The findings of a survey of 42 editors of journals in the field are then presented. These suggest that subscription-based journals (be they subscription-only or hybrid) tend to be owned by commercial publishing companies and have the highest reputation, as measured by their position in one or more indexing systems. They also tend to have significantly larger numbers of paper submissions than open-access journals, especially those that use the Platinum open-access model. While some commentators have suggested that editors of open-access journals with article-processing charges may be tempted to lower their scientific standards to maximise revenues, no evidence was found that such journals have higher acceptance rates than their subscription-based equivalents.
