The interplay between brain and behavior during development: A multisite effort to generate and share simulated datasets is a dataset published in Scientific Data (2025). On theSindex it has a DataRank of 0.165, placing it in the top 70.2% of the data-sharing corpus. It has been cited 2 times. Its calibrated FAIR score is 83/100.
Ranks in the top 70% for downstream scientific impact
Linked data & code
DataRank reads this dataset's downstream impact straight off the citation graph — no black box, no proprietary weighting. How is this computed?
FAIR checklist signals are shown for context only and do not affect DataRank scoring.
Full FAIR picture · advisory
The headline score is computed from the scored criteria — the fact-shaped checks (a repository, an accession, a licence) that two independent models agree on. The advisory criteria below are real FAIR guidance but rest on judgment calls that models read differently, so they inform without moving the number.
“The generated simulated datasets are now freely available to the research community and can be found at https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF .IO/YJT9P 21.”
