• Please indicate which category or categories from our package fit policies this package falls under: (Please check an appropriate box below. If you are unsure, we suggest you make a pre-submission inquiry.):

  • data retrieval
  • data extraction
  • data munging
  • data deposition
  • workflow automation
  • version control
  • citation management and bibliometrics
  • scientific software wrappers
  • field and lab reproducibility tools
  • database software bindings
  • geospatial data
  • text analysis

• Explain how and why the package falls under these categories (briefly, 1-2 sentences):

The Munich Chronotype Questionnaire (MCTQ) may look like a simple questionnaire, but it requires a lot of date/time manipulation. This can be really challenging, especially if you’re dealing with a large set of data. mctq provides reliable tools, thoroughly tested, to help scientists with that task.

• Who is the target audience and what are scientific applications of this package?

mctq was designed for researchers in the field of sleep and chronobiology. The scientific applications of the package are the same as the scale it addresses, i.e. to assess peoples' sleep behavior and characteristics of circadian rhythms.

• Are there other R packages that accomplish the same thing? If so, how does yours differ or meet our criteria for best-in-category?

No other packages do the same thing (to my knowledge).

• (If applicable) Does your package comply with our guidance around Ethics, Data Privacy and Human Subjects Research?

I don't think this is applicable to our package.

• If you made a pre-submission enquiry, please paste the link to the corresponding issue, forum post, or other discussion, or @tag the editor you contacted.

N/A

Confirm each of the following by checking the box.

• I have read the guide for authors and rOpenSci packaging guide.

This package:

• does not violate the Terms of Service of any service it interacts with.
• has a CRAN and OSI accepted license.
• contains a README with instructions for installing the development version.
• includes documentation with examples for all functions, created with roxygen2.
• contains a vignette with examples of its essential functions and uses.

• has continuous integration, including reporting of test coverage using services such as Travis CI, Coveralls and/or CodeCov.

• Do you intend for this package to go on CRAN?

• Do you intend for this package to go on Bioconductor?

• Do you wish to submit an Applications Article about your package to Methods in Ecology and Evolution? If so:

• The package is novel and will be of interest to the broad readership of the journal.
• The manuscript describing the package is no longer than 3000 words.
• You intend to archive the code for the package in a long-term repository which meets the requirements of the journal (see MEE's Policy on Publishing Code)
• (Scope: Do consider MEE's Aims and Scope for your manuscript. We make no guarantee that your manuscript will be within MEE scope.)
• (Although not required, we strongly recommend having a full manuscript prepared when you submit here.)
