asr-data-and-transparency
Use when handling data documentation, sharing, and confidentiality for an American Sociological Review (ASR) manuscript. ASR follows the ASA data-sharing policy — share data and documentation after a project's completion or major publications, with confidentiality and proprietary exemptions — rather than a mandatory editor-verified replication deposit. Prepares documentation; it does not over-state requirements.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

# Data & Transparency (asr-data-and-transparency) ASR's transparency expectations follow the **ASA data-sharing policy**, which is a professional norm of **availability** — not (as at some journals) a mandatory, editor-run reproducibility check before publication. The right posture is: document thoroughly, share what you ethically can, and be explicit about confidentiality. **Confirm the current supplementary-materials policy on the live page** — this skill does not assert a verification step the policy does not state. ## When to trigger - Preparing data documentation and any supplementary materials - Deciding what can be shared given confidentiality, IRB, or proprietary constraints - Documenting qualitative or restricted-access data so claims are credible - A reviewer asked how others could check or build on your analysis ## What the ASA data-sharing policy says (verify current wording) - Sociologists **share data and pertinent documentation as an integral part of a research plan** and **generally make data available after completion of a project or its major publications**. - **Exemptions**: where proprietary agreements with employers, contractors, or clients preclude sharing, or

What does the asr-data-and-transparency skill do?
Use when handling data documentation, sharing, and confidentiality for an American Sociological Review (ASR) manuscript. ASR follows the ASA data-sharing policy — share data and documentation after a project's completion or major publications, with confidentiality and proprietary exemptions — rather than a mandatory editor-verified replication deposit. Prepares documentation; it does not over-state requirements.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill asr-data-and-transparency --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
