Abstract： Purpose This paper proposes a grading template of data policy for deposit & sharing paper related data which is suitable for China’s sci-tech journals, and provides a reference for the basic elements, structural framework and main content for the formulation of journal’s data policy.
Methods Through literature research, empirical research and other methods, this paper research and analyze the normative system of scientific data management in China, research and sort out the journal data policies of international renowned publishers, summarize the recommendations on the journal data policy framework proposed by international organizations.
Findings This paper tries to conclude the basic elements of journal data policy. Furthermore, this paper proposes a grading template of data policy for deposit & sharing paper related data of sci-tech journal papers.
Conclusions This paper proposes a grading template of data policy for deposit & sharing paper related data of sci-tech journal papers. This template provides the basic framework and main text content of the data policy. The journals can freely combine and customize the content of data policy according to actual needs. It can provide templates and refer to various sci-tech journals in China. Currently, 44 journals have adopted this policy template, which helps them establish data policies and promote the sharing and long-term storage of paper related data.

Abstract： Meta-analysis is a crucial tool for accumulating evidence in basic and applied research. In the open science era, meta-analysis becomes an important way for integrating open data from different sources. Meanwhile, because of the great researchers’ degree introduced by multiple-step and multiple-choices in each step of meta-analysis, the openness and transparency are crucial for reproducing results of meta-analysis. To (1) understand the transparency and openness of meta-analysis reports published in Chinese journals and (2) improve the transparency and openness of future meta-analysis by Chinese researchers, we developed a Chinese version of checklist for meta-analysis, which was based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis protocols (PRISMA) and the principle of openness and transparency, and then surveyed the methods and results of 68 meta-analysis papers in mainstream Chinese psychological journals in last five years. Our results revealed that openness and transparency of Chinese meta-analysis reports need to be improved, especially in the following aspects: the date/time and limitation of literature search, the details of screening and data collection, the flow chart of article screening, the details of effect size transformation, and the evaluation of individual research bias. The checklist we present, which lists almost all aspects that an open meta-analysis should include, can be used as a guide for future meta-analysis.
