Description

People and institutions involved in the research project should be listed in a structured way right at the start of the questionnaire. Roles should be defined (e.g. speaker, PI, data manager, student assistant etc.)

Structured information for people means separate fields for title, name, surname, institutional affiliation, position in the project and role regarding RDM tasks (which should be a dropdown list of the roles defined before).

When filling out the questionnaire, it should be possible to assign the responsibility for RDM tasks related to the respective (sub)chapters to certain persons or roles (again via a dropdown list).
