Data Sharing Policy

Sharing the full data sets underlying the results in an article brings many benefits. It enables reuse, reduces research waste, and promotes collaboration. Greater transparency increases trust in research results by allowing results to be independently verified. These benefits lead to a more reliable evidence base and a healthier world.

At AHRJ we do not require the deposition of data prior publication, but recommend authors to share their data, in line with requirements by many funding agencies. Accordingly we strongly encourage that data generated by your research that supports your article be made available as soon as possible, wherever legally and ethically possible. Whenever data deposits have been made, they should be referenced in the paper.
