Released/updated on: 2023-07-26
Geographic coverage: United States, Ann Arbor, Global, Michigan

Measuring the Impact of Curation Activities (MICA) was a project undertaken collaboratively between ICPSR and the University of Michigan School of Information from 2019-2023. MICA sought to improve understanding of the data curation process, secondary data usage, and the relationships between the two. The MICA datasets connect records for each of ICPSR's archived research studies to the research publications that use them and related curation activities available for a subset of studies. The datasets are organized around studies and papers as primary entities. The studies table lists ICPSR studies, their metadata attributes, and usage information; the papers table was constructed using the ICPSR Bibliography and Dimensions database; and the curation logs table summarizes the data curation steps performed on a subset of ICPSR studies.
