Replication Package: Student Survey Data from OSS Summer Programs Study

A replication package for the paper 'How Multidimensional Support Environments Shape Students' Contributions in OSS Summer Programs.' The package includes the survey instrument, anonymized valid survey responses, and a coding script for PLS-SEM analysis. The dataset is 155.3 KB in size and was last updated on May 18, 2026.

Use Cases

• Replicate the PLS-SEM analysis reported in the original paper based on the provided SmartPLS input dataset.
• Analyze student perceptions and contributions in open-source summer programs based on the anonymized survey responses.
• Adapt the survey instrument for related studies on educational support environments.
• Examine the coding methodology used to transform raw survey data into a structural equation modeling input.

Strengths

• Includes the original survey instrument, allowing for methodological transparency.
• Contains anonymized valid survey responses, providing the raw data for analysis.
• Provides the specific coding script used to generate the analysis dataset, enabling exact replication.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license, facilitating reuse and sharing.

Limitations

• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is small (155.3 KB), indicating a limited scope and sample size.
• Author and organization are listed as unknown or anonymous, reducing provenance clarity.
