Aim: This mixed methods study investigates international researchers’ awareness and use of open research practices and explores variations across regions, disciplines, methodologies, and career stages. Methods: A total of 3,017 researchers across 45 countries and 24 disciplines completed the Brief Open Research Survey, reporting their awareness and use of eleven common open research practices and factors that would support their adoption. Results: Across the sample, respondents reported high awareness of Open Access Publications, Preprints, and Open Data and awareness only fell below 50% for Research Co-production and Registered Reports. Use was high for Open Access Publications, but fell below 50% for Preprints, Open Data, Open Research, Open Materials, Open Peer Review, Open Code, Preregistration, Research Co-production, Replication, and Registered Reports. Awareness and use varied across the sampled regions (e.g., Europe vs. Asia), disciplines (e.g., Psychology vs. Physical Sciences), methodologies (e.g., quantitative vs. qualitative), and career stages (e.g., PhD students vs. Professors). Respondents reported that the top five supportive strategies were incentives from funders, institutions and regulators; dedicated funding; recognition in promotion and recruitment criteria; more training; and more information. Qualitative responses provide insight into challenges and opportunities. Conclusions: Estimates of awareness can guide training initiatives, while estimates of use...
