Chapter 1. General Submission Guidelines

Article 1. (Purpose)

These guidelines aim to establish standards for article submissions to academic journals published by the Korean Association for Digital Humanities (KADH).

Article 2. (Submission Eligibility)

Association members who have fulfilled their membership obligations, including payment of dues, may submit articles to the journal and have them published after undergoing the prescribed review process. Non-member submissions are subject to the Editorial Committee's decision.

Article 3. (Submission Method)

1. Articles must be submitted through the open-access submission and review system by the specified deadline. The submission date is considered the day the manuscript is received through the association's article submission and review system. In principle, submissions should be made 30 days before journal publication, and articles received in the submission system before the deadline for each issue will be considered for that issue.

2. Articles must adhere to the association's article writing guidelines and format requirements. They may be written in Korean or English. Submitters should use the MS Word template file (docx) provided by the association to prepare their articles.

Article 4. (Nature of Articles)

Articles must fundamentally be unpublished academic works. Theses or dissertations (or their abstracts) must be clearly identified as such, and the first author must be the degree recipient. Articles presented at conferences organized by this association must be clearly identified as conference presentations, and the first author must be the conference presenter.

Article 5. (Articles and Research Ethics)

The author is fundamentally responsible for the content of the article. Articles must follow the "KADH Research Ethics Guidelines." Violations of these submission-related regulations may result in the cancellation of publication, even after the article has been published.

Article 6. (Utilization of Articles)

Articles published in this journal are distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 license (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/). Therefore, anyone can freely use the association's academic articles for non-commercial purposes. However, public information service institutions providing full texts of the association's journal articles may enter into a usage agreement with the association for continuous and stable service.

Chapter 3. Submission and Handling of Research Data

Article 15. (Purpose)

These regulations aim to establish standards for submitting research data used in article preparation during the submission process, specifying the obligation to submit research data, procedures, and specific submission formats.

Article 16. (Obligation to Submit Research Data)

1. If the submitted journal article is based on research data, the submitter is obligated to submit the data along with the article. If research data is mentioned, presented, or used as specific evidence in the argumentation process of the submitted article, but not submitted along with the article, the Editorial Committee may reject the submitted article through an internal meeting.

2. However, information protected by the Copyright Act and other laws, or information with restricted disclosure according to other laws, may be exempt if proper permission for use has not been obtained.

Article 17. (Nature and Context of Research Data)

1. Research data fundamentally includes all results (raw data, processes, outputs, etc.) used as specific evidence in the submitted article.

2. Research data can be broadly classified into ① data directly compiled by the submitter and ② pre-established data already open and shared externally. The use of pre-established data can be further divided into ②-ⓐ cases where the data is used without modifying its form or content, and ②-ⓑ cases where some form or content is modified or processed for research purposes. All these cases directly contain the context and information compiled or processed by the submitter during the research process, so the relevant data must be submitted during the submission process.

Article 18. (Research Data Submission Format)

Research data needs to be collected and organized in a format that facilitates online verification and sharing, so machine-readable data formats based on web standard technologies are adopted as the basic principle.

Article 19. (Research Data Submission Procedure)

1. Research data necessary for article review should be attached when submitting the article. Only when the file format is difficult to attach or there are file size limitations, the submitter may include a link to the research data in the manuscript. In this case, the link should not allow identification of the submitter to ensure fair review.

2. Explanations for each attached research data file should be included in the main text, endnotes, or appendices of the submitted article.

3. When submitting a revised article, if reviewers request modifications or additional research data submission, or if the author deems it necessary, the submitter should attach the modified/additional research data.

4. For articles accepted for publication, four methods (dataon, osf, github, dataverse) are recommended for publishing research data. Submitters may choose other formats if desired.

5. Submitters must disclose the final link to the research data in the main text, endnotes, or appendices of the published article.

Article 20. (Research Data Submission and Research Ethics)

1. The submitter is fundamentally responsible for the content of the research data.

2. Ethical review of submitted research data fundamentally follows the "KADH Research Ethics Guidelines." For example, if a submitter uses data built by other researchers with some processing or edits publicly available data for use as research data without specifying this information, it may violate research ethics regulations. In such cases, publication may be canceled even after the article has been published.

Article 21. (Utilization of Research Data)

Research data submitted to this journal is distributed as public data through the journal's website, along with the distribution of published articles based on Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/). Accordingly, anyone, including researchers, can freely use the research data provided by this association for non-profit purposes. However, public information service institutions providing research data related to the association's published articles may enter into a usage agreement with the association for continuous and stable service.

Supplementary Provisions

① Other matters follow general conventions or the resolutions of the Editorial Committee. ② These regulations are effective from February 8, 2023.
