test Welcome to your Persistent Identifier (PID) Quiz. Please click Next to start the quiz. 1. What are PIDs assigned for? PIDs allow that (digital) resources such as research data can be permanently found, retrieved and cited. To increase the amount of administrative work for researchers. PIDs guarantee that only authorised users can access the data. 2. An ORCID iD serves... to indicate that a publication is openly accessible. the exact assignment of publications/research activities to a specific researcher. the exact assignment of a publication to a specific research institution. 3. How can I find a dataset that is uniquely identified with a DOI? To find a specific dataset, I need the title of the dataset in addition to the DOI. I need to know in which repository the dataset is stored. Then, I simply enter the DOI in the search mask of the repository's website. I enter the DOI into a common search engine and see what happens. 4. Can the "broken links" problem be avoided by using PIDs? Yes, because the PID decouples the reference from the storage location. Yes, but only as long as the metadata belonging to the PID is not changed. Maybe, but it is not worth the enormous effort to obtain a PID. 5. Which statement is true? Persistent identifiers are assigned at country level. A PID must therefore always contain a two-digit country code according to ISO standard 3166. In many data repositories, a persistent identifier is assigned automatically when the data is uploaded. A PID is only assigned to data sets that are available to everyone without restriction (open access). Please fill in the comment box below. Time is Up! Time's up
