"Data are the sine qua non of all scientific disciplines, be it the life, physical, biomedical, behavioral, or social sciences. Norms and standards about what constitute data differ across disciplines. Thus, research data take a variety of forms including, responses to individual test or survey questions, video or audiotapes of participants’ performance, field notes, pictures, cell lines, microscopic slides, charts, tables, graphs, and measurements. Data are the basic units by which research results are collected, analyzed, interpreted, and communicated. In other words, data are the building blocks of knowledge accumulation and transmission." - [|CITI]
