Wiley announces new Data Sharing and Citation policies to improve transparency in research

John Wiley and Sons, Inc. (NYSE:JWa) (NYSE:JWb), today announced the launch of new data sharing and citation policies that will be implemented across all participating Wiley journals. Sharing data enables researchers to reuse experimental results and supports the creation of new work built on previous findings. These new policies will improve the efficiencies of the research process supporting the critical goals of transparency and reproducibility.

…

The majority of Wiley’s journals will now adopt one of three standardized data sharing policies, which will encourage, expect, or mandate data sharing from authors publishing with us. You will be able to review the data sharing policy on your selected journal’s author guidelines or via the Wiley Author Compliance Tool. Research data includes but is not limited to: raw data, processed data, software, algorithms, protocols, methods, and materials.
