This repository contains data, syntax, and materials that are able to be shared in support of the lead author's dissertation study titled: An exploratory study of quantitative value recovery and shared content reusability in a heterogeneous sample of reading research. The acronym RRS (reusability in reading studies) is used throughout the documents.

The data sets are deidentified with respect to direct author/article/journal identifiers and can be reused under an Open Data Commons license as recommended by LDbase. Users can cite the overall project when reusing these data sets.

All other materials are shared under a CC0 license, meaning that these can be reused without attribution. However, the above project-level citation can be used for attribution if desired.

The repository is structured as follows:

Study Documentation (See READ ME for more detail)
-------- Document: Dissertation Prospectus [dated dissertation prospectus document]
-------- Document: Author Email Template [email to authors with unlicensed content]

Summary Analysis (See READ ME for more detail)
-------- Document: Joint Report Template [HTML version of R Quarto template used for Phase 1/2/3 coding]
