FAIR practices enhance research visibility, foster collaboration, and advance scientific discovery.

To protect participant confidentiality, all publicly shared datasets are fully de-identified prior to release. VEX datasets are archived with full documentation and citation information at OpenICPSR (www.openicpsr.org). Please consult the links below to access the repository and citation guidance.
