ICPSR Content Models for Social Science data

An early draft of the ICPSR Content Models for Social Science data can be found hereNSF EAGER project is funding the design and testing of a content model architecture for social science, a tool to package existing content in FOXML, and a series of useful prototypes of services that might be used with the objects.  We've been documenting our work here http://techaticpsr.blogspot.com/search/label/eager but I'll include a few of the objects in picture form here, along with links to the same object stored in our test Fedora repository.

Here's a container for social science research data (Content Model for social science research data ) Image Added

Here is a container for documentation about the research data object (Content Model for social science research data documentation).  We used a separate object since one documentation object can apply to more than one data object. Image Added

And, last, here is an aggregate object, typically used to hold "study"-level metadata that will have relationships to the two objects above (Content Model for social science study )
