Synthetic Data: A Very Short Primer for Social Workers

No 5wyhk, SocArXiv from Center for Open Science

Abstract: Social workers regularly perform research with vulnerable populations. These populations require additional provisions to ensure they are not harmed or exploited. With the transformation of social science research towards open science and open data, social work must move forward. Synthetic data presents an opportunity to simultaneously protect vulnerable populations and create open data. This primer briefly introduces synthetic data, provides a high-level example, and why social workers should consider it.
