cps-transparency-and-data

Use when preparing the replication and transparency materials for a Comparative Political Studies (CPS) manuscript. Quantitative papers cannot be finally accepted until replication materials are deposited at the CPS Dataverse; a data availability statement is required. Prepares the package; it does not waive requirements.

# Transparency & Data (cps-transparency-and-data)

CPS enforces political-science replication norms. **Papers presenting quantitative analyses will not be
granted final acceptance until replication materials (data, code, log files, etc.) are deposited at the
CPS Dataverse on Harvard Dataverse**, and every paper needs a **data availability statement**. Build the
package as you go so final acceptance does not stall — and follow DA-RT-style transparency for
qualitative evidence too.

## When to trigger

- Building the replication/reproducibility package and the data availability statement
- A manuscript is near acceptance and the editorial office expects deposited materials
- Data cannot be fully shared (privacy, ethics, provider restrictions) and you need a path
- Preparing a (optional) anonymized pre-analysis plan as supplementary material
