Data Sharing Policy

Ant Publishing Corporation adopts ICMJE requirements (http://www.icmje.org/recommendations/browse/publishing-and-editorial-issues/clinical-trial-registration.html) regarding data sharing statements. In particular, we adopt the view that data sharing statements must indicate the following:

  • Whether individual de-identified participant data (including data dictionaries) will be shared;
  •  What data in particular will be shared;
  • Whether additional, related documents will be available (e.g., study protocol, statistical analysis plan, data dictionary, etc.);
  • When the data will become available and for how long; by what access criteria data will be shared (including with whom, for what types of analyses, and by what mechanism).
