The NSR Journal supports the principles of open science and encourages the open exchange of scientific data between authors, reviewers, and readers. We recommend the authors to provide access to the data that support the published results to the extent possible, taking into account legal, ethical, and confidential restrictions. In this regard, origin research information (raw data, processed data, statistics, algorithms, or protocols) can be shared by its deposition in recognized public repositories. Small datasets may be uploaded as an additional file on the journal's website along with the article.
If this is not possible, authors are encouraged to provide a specific rationale in the Data Availability Statement section of the template file, allowing the necessary materials to be made available to interested researchers upon request, provided there are no prohibitions. In cases when data cannot be shared due to ethical, legal, or privacy considerations, this should also be stated.
Authors must provide clear and specific reasons in the Data Availability Statement to ensure transparency. The following statements can be used.
Data available to be shared
- The data that support the findings of this study are available in [repository name] at [DOI/URL].
- The data that support the findings of this study are available in the supplementary material of this article.
- The data that support the findings of this study are available from the corresponding author upon reasonable request.
Data not available to be shared
- The raw/processed data required to reproduce the above findings cannot be shared at this time due to [legal/privacy/ethical] restrictions. [Detailed reasons].
- Data sharing is not applicable to this article, as no new data were generated or analysed (this option is often used for review articles).
- Research data are not shared.
Data should be deposited in reputable public repositories that provide persistent identifiers (e.g., DOIs) and ensure long-term accessibility. Authors are encouraged to use discipline-specific repositories where appropriate:

Please note that the data availability policy for scientific journals is constantly changing. At present, the authors are frequently requested to support their experimental or theoretical findings with initial (raw) data to confirm the transparency and reproducibility of their research and to enable further investigation and validation by independent researchers.
In this context, statements as “Data are available upon request from the authors” and “The data presented in this article are not readily available because the data are part of an ongoing study” are generally not acceptable. In addition, as a rule, such statements do not meet modern requirements for the openness and reproducibility of scientific research.
