Rewards and Incentives

Researchers are in theory overwhelmingly in favor of R&R; however, the actual implementation of practice requires the buy-in of researchers and institutions.

Understanding how researchers are incentivized aids in the development of tools and resources to make R&R and efficient and beneficial practice in everyday research, resulting in true culture change for researchers and universities.
