Abstract
This report is a part of an international survey on data literacy and research data management and is concerned with the Croatian state of affairs. A key aim of this study is to elicit the practices of Croatian researchers and PhD students regarding the production, dissemination, provision, storage, and description of research data, as well as portraying institutional attitudes towards those issues. By contributing Croatian data this study widens the international perspective on research data management. Findings of this study expose the current levels of awareness and gaps in knowledge and allow creation of structured and well-focused educational activities.
