Data Sharing Policy

The journal is committed to promoting transparency and research integrity in humanities research by encouraging authors to disclose the data or materials on which their studies are based, in accordance with ethical principles as well as legal and cultural constraints.

Authors are required to provide a clear data availability statement within their manuscripts, specifying whether the data are available for access or reuse, where they can be accessed, or whether there are any restrictions that prevent data sharing, such as privacy concerns, copyright issues, or institutional agreements.

The data referred to may include, but are not limited to, research instruments (such as questionnaires and interview protocols), textual or documentary materials, coding schemes used in qualitative analysis, or corpora employed in linguistic or literary studies.

The journal recognizes the specific nature and complexities of humanities research; therefore, data sharing is not mandatory. However, authors are encouraged to indicate the availability of their data and to provide access upon reasonable request whenever possible, in a manner that ensures compliance with research ethics and the protection of research participants.
