Data Sharing and Reproducibility Policy

IJASSD supports transparency, reproducibility, and the responsible sharing of research data. Authors are encouraged to make the data, materials, codes, and other resources underlying their research findings available whenever possible, subject to legal, ethical, and confidentiality considerations.

Authors must include a Data Availability Statement in their manuscript describing how the data supporting the findings of the study can be accessed. Data may be deposited in recognized institutional, disciplinary, or public repositories, or made available by the corresponding author upon reasonable request.

Where data cannot be shared due to privacy, confidentiality, intellectual property, legal, or ethical restrictions, authors must clearly explain the reasons in the Data Availability Statement.

The Editorial Board may request access to underlying research data during the review process when necessary to verify the validity, integrity, or reproducibility of the reported findings. Failure to provide requested data without reasonable justification may result in rejection of the manuscript.

IJASSD encourages authors to follow discipline-specific best practices for data management and sharing in order to enhance the transparency and impact of published research.
