This dataset contains the results from the survey 'Understanding Experiments and Research Practices for Reproducibility' conducted in the context of DFG CRC/TRR ReceptorLight. This survey was conducted as part of the dissertation of Sheeba Samuel. The purpose of this study was to gain a better understanding of what is needed to achieve reproducibility of experiments in science. The online survey consisted of 26 questions grouped in 6 sections. The six sections are: (1) Privacy policy, (2) Research context of the participant, (3) Reproducibility, (4) Measures to ensure reproducibility, (5) Important factors to understand a scientific experiment to enable reproducibility and (6) Experiment Workflow/Research Practices. The survey was completely anonymous. The survey was made available online on 24th January 2019. Out of 150 respondents, 101 responses were considered eligible for the analysis of the results. This dataset contains the survey questionnaire with the results. The results contain the raw and processed data along with the graphs for each question.
