Evidence
FAIR data
Evidence (documentation)
FAIR means Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable. The main goal of the FAIR
Data principles is an optimal preparation of research data, which should be findable,
accessible, interoperable, and reusable.
Research Data
Research data are (digital) data generated during scientific activity (e.g. through
measurements, surveys, tests, source work). They form a basis for scientific work and
document its results.
Research Data
Management
Research data management is the process of transforming, selecting, and storing research
data with the aim of keeping it accessible, reusable and verifiable in the long term and
independently of the data creator.
Ingest
The process of entering data and associated metadata into a data repository.
Insource/Outsource
Partners
Cooperation partners internal/external
Integrity
A system guarantees data integrity if it is not possible for subjects (e.g. users) to
manipulate, e.g. change, the data to be protected without authorization and without being
noticed.
KOMET
Competence center of motor tests. Coordination and bundling of all activities related to
motor tests - see also "Bös et al. (2021). KOMET - Kompetenzzentrum motorische Tests.
Hintergrund & Testbeschreibungen".
Continuity of access to
data (continuity of
access)
Sustainability of data storage; long-term archiving/long-term availability of digital
resources.
Long-term archiving
More than just the permanent storage of digital information on a data carrier. Rather, it
includes the preservation of the permanent availability and thus a subsequent use and
interpretability of the digital resources.
Mapping (data mapping)
Metadata
Data mapping is the process of transferring data (elements) from one data model to
another. This is the first step in integrating foreign information into one's own information
system.
Intrinsically independent data that contain structured information about other data or
resources and their characteristics. They are stored independently of or together with the
data they describe in more detail.
Metadata standard
Mission/Scope
MO|RE data
A requirement to provide a common understanding of the meaning of the data to ensure
the correct and proper use and interpretation of the data by its owners and users.
Each repository has an explicit mission to provide access to stored data for its intended
audience (designated community) and to archive the data for the long term.
Motor research data - eResearch infrastructure for sports science motor research data.
Reuse of data/Data Reuse The reuse of collected data for a specific purpose, to investigate a new problem or to verify
the conclusions of the data producer.
NFDI
The National Research Data Infrastructure is a digital, distributed infrastructure currently
under construction that will provide the scientific community in Germany with services and
advice on all aspects of research data management. More information at:

Standardization/Norm
data
Normalization is the development of a conversion scale from raw scores to norm scores for
the purpose of establishing comparability of an individual test result with a representative
comparison group.

The person must agree to comply with the terms of use in order to use the offered service.
A free access to scientific literature and other materials on the internet.
An archive consisting of an organization of people and systems that has taken on the
responsibility of preserving information and making it available to a target group
(designated community).
