spq-data-and-transparency
Use when preparing the data, materials, and transparency posture for a Social Psychology Quarterly (SPQ) manuscript. SPQ ENCOURAGES sharing data, code, and materials but does NOT require it, and willingness to share has no impact on acceptance; the journal follows the ASA data-sharing norm and Code of Ethics. Covers quantitative and qualitative/interpretive transparency and confidentiality. Prepares the posture; it does not invent requirements.

# Data & Transparency (spq-data-and-transparency) SPQ's posture is deliberately different from open-data-mandate journals. It **encourages** researchers to make data, code, and materials available, but **this is not a requirement**, and **willingness to publicly release data and materials has no impact on the likelihood of acceptance**. The journal recognizes that not all areas of social psychology — especially ethnographic and interview work — can share data practically or ethically. Transparency at SPQ means clear documentation and honoring the **ASA data-sharing norm**, not a verified replication gate. ## When to trigger - Deciding what data/code/materials to share, and how to describe your transparency posture - Confidential or sensitive data (fieldnotes, interview transcripts, restricted survey data) - A reviewer asked about materials, measures, or replicability - Writing the data-availability and ethics language ## What SPQ actually asks (verify current wording on the policy page) 1. **Encouraged, not required.** SPQ encourages open data, code, and materials so others can review and use them — but does not require it, and **non-sharing does not lower acceptance odds**.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill spq-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.
