YARD (Yale Application for Research Data) is an open-source web application for reviewing and enhancing research outputs. The software structures the data curation and code review workflow, contributing to research transparency and reproducibility. In addition to traditional curatorial tasks, dedicated data curation staff replicate analyses and validate published results for each study before publishing the files online.
At Yale, the tool as currently configured is feeding into the Institution for Social and Policy Studies’ ISPS Data Archive and intended for the use of ISPS affiliates.
YARD at ISPS enables open access to research materials that have been fully reviewed and enhanced for long-term reuse, and geared toward research output from randomized trials in the social sciences.
