This guide helps researchers determine the optimal publication venue for their econometrics research. It provides detailed rules for assessing whether a paper's contribution is best suited for The Econometrics Journal (EctJ), a general econometrics journal, a theory journal, or a specific field journal. It emphasizes distinguishing between methods with leading-case applied value, purely theoretical proofs, and general empirical findings to improve publication chances.

A meticulous style guide for authors submitting papers to the International Conference on Database Theory (ICDT). It mandates a rigorous theorem-proof structure, emphasizing precise statement of data models, query languages, and complexity measures. The guide teaches how to structure the introduction to lead with the core result and its data-management implications, adhering to top-tier academic standards.

A comprehensive guide for conducting rigorous empirical analysis on field and survey data in low- and middle-income settings. It covers advanced methods for handling clustered sampling, measurement error, differential attrition, and treatment-effect heterogeneity, ensuring results meet the high standards of reproducibility and robustness required by leading developmental economics journals.

This guide provides expert editorial standards for structuring tables and figures in public economics manuscripts, specifically tailored for submissions to the Journal of Public Economics. It emphasizes making the policy design visible by leading with graphical evidence (such as bunching plots, RD, or event-studies) rather than relying solely on regression coefficients, thereby enhancing credibility with specialized referees.

A comprehensive project management guide for planning submissions to KDD, accounting for its unique structure of two annual submission cycles. It covers milestone tracking, cycle-choice decision matrices, managing the Resubmit loop, and planning evidence lead times from abstract to camera-ready status. Essential for complex, multi-stage data science research.

Provides detailed guidelines for creating high-standard clinical figures and tables, modeled after leading medical journals (e.g., The Lancet). It covers essential display items including Table 1 (baseline characteristics), Kaplan-Meier survival curves (with numbers-at-risk), Forest plots for meta-analyses, CONSORT/PRISMA flow diagrams, and global maps. The guide emphasizes the rigorous reporting of 95% confidence intervals (CIs) and proper statistical methods to ensure scientific accuracy.

National Science Review is a leading Chinese multidisciplinary journal. This skill provides a comprehensive guide to help authors assess if their manuscript (primary research or review) is a good fit for NSR. It covers scope, required methodology rigor, house style, and the official submission checklist, ensuring the work is framed for a global, broad-science audience.

A comprehensive guide for authors designing figures and tables for Nature Geoscience manuscripts. It outlines strict rules for adhering to a limited figure budget (4-6 display items), ensuring the lead figure immediately conveys the core Earth-system advance and its uncertainty, and maintaining high standards of cartography and data visualization for non-specialist readership.

A comprehensive skill designed for authors targeting Science Signaling, a leading journal in cellular signal transduction. This tool provides guidance on the journal's scope, required mechanistic depth, quantitative rigor, house style, and specific evidence standards (e.g., loss/gain-of-function, in vivo evidence). It is crucial for venue selection and restructuring manuscripts to fit the high standards of AAAS Science family publications.

A comprehensive skill designed to assess the suitability of a manuscript for The BMJ (British Medical Journal). It provides expert guidance on journal positioning, required methodological rigor (e.g., CONSORT, PRISMA, STROBE compliance), open data commitments, structured abstract requirements, and the specific standards necessary for submission to a leading, patient-centered, evidence-based medical journal. Use this to re-frame and optimize your research paper before submission.
