 Both data and software play a fundamental role in almost all of research.
 Over the past decades, Research Data Management (RDM) has evolved into a topic of national interest with NFDI\footnote{Nationale Forschungsdateninfrastruktur: the national research data infrastructure in Germany} consortia for all disciplines and a research data law.
 Federal state RDM initiatives\footnote{\url{https://forschungsdaten.info/fdm-im-deutschsprachigen-raum/deutschland/}} have established the topic further and provide regional training, networking and other supporting services.
+Research supports the nowadays generally accepted notion that good RDM benefits researchers, in this case increasing their citation counts~\autocite{The_citation_advantage_of_linking_publications_to_research_data}.
 Many research organisations have set up established central RDM groups that support research projects in all aspects from grant proposals to hands-on support and maintaining Data Management Plans (DMPs).
 Funding agencies acknowledge the importance of research data and have started to make RDM mandatory in research projects.

 > Section 2.2.1 compares RSE to Research Data Management. The comparison is reasonable but you assume RDM is already successful. Provide at least one citation showing measurable success of central RDM units in Germany.
 
 **Answer:**
+We think that RDM and RDM units are successful if and only if they benefit researchers and research as a whole.
+Research is influenced by too many factors simultaneously to clearly identify the effect of just one.
+Given these conditions it is perhaps not surprising that there are not many rigorous scientific studies to causation or even just correlation.
+However, we added one of the few, in which a correlation between quality and presence of data availability sections (indicating existing RDM) and citations counts is shown.
