Jurnal Desain supports transparency, traceability, and responsible research practices by encouraging authors to preserve and, where ethically, legally, and practically possible, provide access to the research data and supporting materials underlying their published findings.
Research transparency does not mean that all research data must be made publicly available.
Data sharing and reproducibility requirements must be applied in a manner appropriate to the characteristics of design, visual art, visual culture, media, architecture, interior design, product design, fashion, photography, animation, and other fields covered by Jurnal Desain.
The journal recognizes that access to research materials may legitimately be restricted by:
Authors remain responsible for ensuring that their research-data practices comply with applicable ethical, legal, institutional, and disciplinary requirements.
1. Scope of Research Data and Supporting Materials
For the purposes of this policy, research data and supporting materials may include, where relevant:
The nature of relevant research data varies by discipline and research design. Authors are therefore expected to identify the materials that materially support the claims and findings presented in their article.
2. Data Availability Statement
Articles published in Jurnal Desain must include a Data Availability Statement appropriate to the nature of the research.
The statement should indicate whether the data or supporting materials underlying the article:
The Data Availability Statement must accurately reflect the actual availability of the research materials.
Authors must not state that data are publicly available when they are not accessible at the location or under the conditions specified.
3. Publicly Available Research Data
Where research data can be shared without ethical, legal, confidentiality, or intellectual-property restrictions, authors are encouraged to deposit the materials in an appropriate trusted repository.
Where applicable, the Data Availability Statement should provide:
Repository-based sharing is encouraged where it improves long-term accessibility, preservation, citation, and verification of the research record.
Jurnal Desain does not require authors to use a particular repository unless otherwise specified for a specific type of research material.
4. Data Available Upon Reasonable Request
Where public repository deposit is not necessary or reasonably practicable, authors may state that relevant research data or supporting materials are available from the corresponding author upon reasonable request.
Such a statement should only be used when the authors can reasonably provide the identified materials.
Requests may be subject to:
The phrase “available upon reasonable request” should not be used when the authors know that the data cannot in fact be shared.
5. Restricted or Non-Public Research Data
Jurnal Desain does not require public disclosure of research materials where sharing would violate legitimate ethical, legal, privacy, confidentiality, cultural, contractual, or intellectual-property obligations.
Restricted materials may include, for example:
Where data cannot be made publicly available, authors must provide a concise explanation in the Data Availability Statement.
Authors should not upload confidential, restricted, copyrighted, or personally identifiable materials solely to satisfy a perceived data-sharing requirement.
6. Human Participants and Personal Data
Research involving human participants must protect privacy, confidentiality, dignity, and personal information.
Data sharing must be consistent with:
Where appropriate and ethically permissible, authors should anonymize or de-identify research data before sharing.
Anonymization must be meaningful. Removing names alone may not be sufficient where individuals remain identifiable from images, contextual information, demographic combinations, quotations, locations, or other indirect identifiers.
7. Visual, Design, and Creative Research Materials
Jurnal Desain recognizes that research in design and visual disciplines often relies on materials whose status differs from conventional numerical datasets.
Photographs, artworks, advertisements, posters, interfaces, architectural documentation, films, illustrations, design artefacts, prototypes, branded materials, archival images, and other visual works may function as research evidence while remaining protected by copyright or other rights.
Authors must distinguish between:
Publication of an image within an article does not automatically authorize the author or journal to redistribute the original source file as open research data.
Where visual evidence cannot legally or ethically be redistributed, authors should describe the source, access conditions, or relevant restrictions sufficiently for the research process to remain as transparent and traceable as reasonably possible.
8. Reproducibility and Research Traceability
Jurnal Desain interprets reproducibility according to the characteristics of the relevant discipline and research method.
Not all design, qualitative, interpretive, historical, ethnographic, visual, or practice-based research can or should be reproduced in the same manner as experimental or computational research.
Authors should nevertheless provide sufficient methodological transparency to allow readers to understand and critically assess how the research was conducted.
Where relevant, manuscripts should clearly describe:
For design and practice-based research, authors should provide sufficient documentation of the research or design process, evaluation procedure, evidence generated, and analytical basis for the findings.
The objective is research traceability and scholarly verification, not mechanical replication where replication is inappropriate to the research paradigm.
9. Code, Software, and Computational Materials
Where an article's findings materially depend on original computational code, scripts, software, algorithms, digital tools, or analytical workflows developed by the authors, the relevant materials should be made available where reasonably possible.
Where they cannot be shared, the manuscript or Data Availability Statement should explain the restriction.
Authors should provide sufficient methodological information to allow readers to understand the role of computational tools in producing the reported findings.
Third-party proprietary software need not be redistributed by the authors, but the manuscript should identify the software and relevant version or configuration where this information is material to reproducibility.
10. Research Instruments and Protocols
Where research findings depend materially on questionnaires, interview guides, coding frameworks, experimental procedures, analytical protocols, or other research instruments, authors are encouraged to provide sufficient information to permit assessment of the research process.
Instruments may be included:
Where an instrument is copyrighted, licensed, confidential, or otherwise restricted, authors must respect those restrictions and describe the instrument sufficiently without unlawfully redistributing it.
11. Supplementary Materials
Jurnal Desain may accept supplementary materials that contribute meaningfully to the transparency or interpretation of an article.
Supplementary materials may include:
Acceptance of supplementary materials is subject to editorial assessment, technical feasibility, ethical requirements, copyright, and relevance to the published research.
Supplementary files are part of the scholarly publication record and must not contain material that violates participant confidentiality, copyright, privacy, or other applicable rights.
12. Editorial Access to Supporting Data
During editorial assessment, peer review, or an investigation of a research-integrity concern, the Editor may request relevant research data or supporting documentation where necessary to assess the reliability, ethics, or integrity of a manuscript.
Such requests may include:
Failure to provide reasonably requested supporting information without an adequate explanation may affect the editorial assessment of the manuscript.
Confidential materials provided for editorial verification will be handled in accordance with the journal's confidentiality and publication-ethics requirements.
13. Peer Review and Confidential Research Data
Peer reviewers should assess whether the manuscript provides sufficient information about its data, evidence, and methods to support the reported findings.
However, confidential research data must not be distributed unnecessarily.
Where additional confidential materials are required for editorial assessment, access should be coordinated by the responsible Editor.
Peer reviewers must comply with Jurnal Desain's Artificial Intelligence (AI) Policy and must not upload manuscript content, research data, or supplementary confidential materials to generative AI or AI-assisted systems.
14. Integrity of Research Data
Authors must not fabricate, falsify, selectively manipulate, or deceptively present research data or supporting evidence.
This includes inappropriate manipulation of:
Legitimate image processing or data cleaning must not alter the substantive meaning of the evidence in a misleading manner.
Suspected fabrication, falsification, deceptive image manipulation, or other data-integrity concerns will be handled under the journal's Publication Ethics and Malpractice Statement.
15. Data Citation
Where research data, datasets, archives, repositories, software, or other independently identifiable research resources are used, authors should cite them appropriately where citation is applicable and practicable.
Data citations should provide sufficient information to identify and locate the referenced resource.
Where a DOI or other persistent identifier is available, authors are encouraged to include it.
Third-party data must be used in accordance with applicable licensing, attribution, ethical, and legal requirements.
16. Changes to Data Availability After Publication
Authors should make reasonable efforts to ensure that links, repository records, and materials identified in the Data Availability Statement remain accessible.
If the availability of material changes substantially after publication—for example because a repository link becomes invalid, access restrictions change, or a significant error in the deposited data is identified—the authors should inform the editorial office.
Where necessary, Jurnal Desain may update the publication record through an appropriate correction or other post-publication notice.
17. Examples of Data Availability Statements
