Question:
Does copyright law impact data mining in academic research?
2
Fact:Data mining involves access to and usage of (copyright protected) articles and data in bulk

Empirical research
Use of data available on academic research output
Academic publications as reasonable indicator of the innovation output of academic researchers

Classification of countries
Copyright law is not harmonised Protection is determined at national level 4 categories:
Not allowed
Probably not allowed
Probably allowed
Allowed
Few countries remained unclassified

Classification in detail ...1/
‘Not allowed’: countries with a closed list of exception and limitation, without relevant exception = Europe, Switzerland, Russia, Latin America

Control indicators
1. GDP per capita
2. Country population size
3. The level of rule of law

Analysis & Results
Multilevel linear regression model with varying intercepts by country, also known as a random effects model
In all specifications, we find significant positive coefficients for the category ‘probably allowed’ (p<.01).
Overall, there is extensive evidence that DM share is greater in countries with more permissive DM-related copyright than in the ‘not allowed’ category of countries.

Conclusion
In most EU/EEA Member States, DM-related copyright protection is comparatively strong.
Our results suggest that the net effect is a weaker performance of domestic academic researchers in this increasingly important type of research
