Purpose
This page explains the general policy governing the existence and handling of research artifacts related to SGT Lab publications.
It is intended to provide transparency regarding what categories of artifacts may exist, what is outside scope, and how access is intentionally constrained, without turning this site into an access request or sales channel.
This page is the primary policy reference for access-related conditions referenced in Methodology and Errata & Corrections. Issue pages may specify availability and constraints for a given release.
This policy page is subject to versioned updates; material changes are recorded in Errata & Corrections.
Types of artifacts (illustrative)
Depending on the publication and research cycle, the following categories of artifacts may exist as part of SGT Lab research outputs. Availability varies by issue and version.
- Clean datasets: De-identified analysis datasets derived from survey responses (e.g., CSV format), prepared under versioned specifications and consistent coding rules. (De-identification reduces risk but does not imply zero re-identification risk.)
- Derived tables: Aggregated or segmented tables used internally or in publications, including reference tables and cross-tabulations.
- Codebooks / data dictionaries: Documentation describing variables, labels, scales, and question groupings.
- Manifests and release notes: Records describing version identifiers, generation dates, and documented changes between releases where applicable.
The presence of these categories does not imply that all artifacts are publicly released or routinely provided.
Outside scope
SGT Lab publications and related artifacts are descriptive and non-normative. SGT Lab does not provide the following:
- Legal, regulatory, or compliance determinations
- Certification outcomes or audit judgments
- Custom revisions of published results or narratives on request
- Advice, recommendations, or prescriptive guidance
- Bespoke analysis presented as decision outcomes
Access principles
Where access to certain artifacts is considered outside of public materials, it is governed by the following principles:
- Consistency: Definitions, scales, coding rules, and aggregation logic are fixed and are not altered based on requester preferences.
- Versioning: Artifacts are associated with specific publication versions and dates, and are not mixed across versions.
- Publication record integrity: Provision of artifacts does not revise the published record. SGT Lab does not alter published results, interpretations, or conclusions based on requester preferences.
- Responsible handling: Access may be declined where there are material concerns regarding privacy protection, re-identification risk, contractual restrictions (e.g., panel-provider terms), or credible risk of harmful or deceptive downstream use.
Access channels
To preserve the integrity, neutrality, and reference-oriented nature of this site, SGT Lab does not process data access requests, licensing inquiries, or usage applications through sgtlab.org.
Where independent verification is required (e.g., audit or academic replication), access (if granted) is handled through a separate administrative process, under written terms consistent with this policy.
This page exists to clarify scope and principles only, not to serve as an application or negotiation interface.
Relationship to other pages
Details on measurement scope, versioned specifications, and limitations are described in Methodology.
Issue-specific information (e.g., sample size, fieldwork period) is documented in the corresponding White Paper issue record.
Corrections, version notes, and public change records are maintained separately via Errata & Corrections.
参考（日本語・補足）
本ページは、SGT Lab刊行物に関連する研究成果物について、 「どのような種類が存在し得るか」「何が提供範囲外か」「どのような原則で扱われるか」を 説明するためのものです。
個別のデータ提供や利用申請を受け付ける窓口ではありません。 本サイトは、参照用の刊行記録としての性格を維持することを重視しています。
プライバシー保護、再同定リスク、契約上の制約（パネル提供者との契約等）、 および誤用・欺瞞的利用の防止の観点から、 生データや逐語的な設問原文・全選択肢の無制限公開は行っていません。 一方で、測定スコープ、版管理された仕様、限界は Methodology において説明可能な形で開示しています。
訂正（errata）や版管理の更新履歴は Errata & Corrections に記録します。
