This repository contains the Quarto book of my master’s thesis: Is latitude associated with chronotype? The research compendium is accessible via The Open Science Framework by clicking here.
The assemble of this repository was inspired by Ben Marwick, Carl Boettiger & Lincoln Mullen’s article Packaging Data Analytical Work Reproducibly Using R (and Friends).
All analyses in this thesis are fully reproducible and were conducted
using the R programming language alongside
the Quarto publishing system. The
renv
package was used to ensure
that the R environment used can be restored (see renv.lock
). All the
computational notebooks can be found in the qmd
directory.
It’s important to note that some restrictions apply to the availability of the main research data, which contain personal and sensitive information. As a result, this data cannot be publicly shared. To run the analyses, users must have an internet connection and request a set of access keys from the author (see the keys section below).
To reproduce the analyses do the following steps:
- Clone this repository.
- Open the R project (
mastersthesis.Rproj
). - Run
renv::restore()
to install all software dependencies. - Set all the keys provided by the author in the
.Renviron
file and the_ssh
folder. - Open and run the analysis in the computational notebook.
If you don’t feel comfortable with R, I strongly recommend checking Hadley Wickham and Garrett Grolemund’s free and online book R for Data Science and the Coursera course from John Hopkins University Data Science: Foundations using R.
To access the data and run the notebooks, you will need to set the
following keys in the
.Renviron
file:
OSF_PAT
: Your OSF Personal Access Token (PAT). If you don’t have one, go to the settings section of your OSF account and create a new token.MASTERSTHESIS_PASSWORD
: The password for the project’s RSA private key.
Additionally, you will need the following files in the project’s _ssh
folder:
id_rsa
: The project’s private RSA key.id_rsa.pub
: The project’s public RSA key.
These project’s keys will be provided by the author of the thesis upon reasonable request. As reasonable requests, I consider those made by researchers with a legitimate interest in the thesis topic, whose projects are of high quality, ethically conducted, and who have obtained all necessary approvals for their research proposal.
