Abstract

Health emergencies contribute to a greater sharing of research data among the scientific community, however, there are other factors that can influence researchers to share or retain their data. The objective is to identify the factors that can influence the perception and attitude of researchers in sharing data sets. The specific objective was to present a framework with the identified factors. Documentary and exploratory research using the method of content analysis and application of the institutional theory, the theory of planned behavior and the research model for data sharing behaviors. The data revealed that indicators of the Cognitive, Normative, Career, Resources and Social pillars influence the perception and attitude of sharing data. It is hoped that the results will allow a perception of the factors that influence researchers to share their data.
