Research Transparency and Publishing in Political Science Journals: What You Need To Know

Over the last several years, many political science journals have introduced new standards for data access and research transparency for both quantitative and qualitative papers. Junior scholars who hope to publish in those journals need to know what to expect from reviewers and editors, and how to generate the kind of information necessary to meet each journal’s standards.  In this POMEPS Professional Development webinar, American Political Science Review editors Michelle Dion and Elisabeth Jean Wood discuss the implementation of the APSA 2020 Principles on Human Subjects Research, which call for transparency about ethical practices, and Emily Kalah Gade discusses her experience with the transparency process while recently publishing in the APSR.
