Research data
AUCTORES strongly encourages that all datasets underlying the conclusions of a paper should be made available to readers. Where there is a widely accepted community standard for data sharing, AUCTORES mandates deposition of data in suitable repositories. To assist authors, AUCTORES provides guidance on recommended public repositories organized by subject area. All manuscripts must include an “Availability of Data and Materials” section specifying where the supporting data can be accessed. Publicly available datasets should also be cited in the reference list. For more details, please refer to our Editorial Policies page. AUCTORES’ research data policy aligns with standardized research data policies adopted by leading scientific publishers, ensuring consistency and transparency.

Authors are encouraged to publish peer-reviewed data papers describing their publicly available datasets. AUCTORES supports open access data publication in journals that feature scientifically valuable datasets. Learn more about research data publishing.
