jop-replication-and-data-policy

Use when preparing the replication / data-access materials for a The Journal of Politics (JOP) manuscript. JOP makes acceptance contingent on replicability — a JOP replication analyst assigned at conditional acceptance assesses the package you deposit in the JOP Dataverse (Harvard Dataverse), and non-replicable manuscripts are rejected. Prepares the package; it does not waive the requirement.

# Replication & Data Policy (jop-replication-and-data-policy)

This is JOP's signature skill. JOP does not merely request a deposit — **acceptance is contingent on
replicability**. A **JOP replication analyst**, assigned at **conditional acceptance**, assesses your
materials before publication, and **manuscripts that are not replicable are rejected**. Build the package
**as you analyze**, not at acceptance.

## When to trigger

- Building the replication / data-access package (start during analysis)
- A manuscript reached **conditional acceptance** and a replication analyst was assigned
- Data cannot be fully shared (privacy, ethics, legal/provider restrictions) and you need the path
- Any empirical, simulation-based, or formal-theoretical paper headed for JOP
