Skill UI

This skill acts as an academic positioning tool for targeting high-level journals focused on institutional and economic comparison, such as the Comparative Economic and Social Systems journal. It helps users assess if their manuscript possesses the necessary comparative scope, institutional logic, and generalizable theoretical contribution required for acceptance, guiding manuscript reframing and submission strategy.

This guide provides a framework for rigorously defending the methodological design of scientific manuscripts in conservation biology. It covers advanced topics including detection modeling (occupancy, capture-recapture), addressing spatial structure and pseudoreplication, quasi-experimental designs (BACI, difference-in-differences), and systematic review protocols (PRISMA). The goal is to ensure that the evidence presented directly and credibly supports transferable, decision-relevant conservation conclusions.

This guide provides a comprehensive methodological framework and checklist for researchers conducting quasi-experimental and micro-panel studies in rural economics. It systematically addresses common econometric pitfalls, such as self-selection bias, reverse causality, and endogeneity, detailing best practices for advanced methods like Difference-in-Differences (DID), Instrumental Variables (IV), Regression Discontinuity (RDD), and Propensity Score Matching (PSM).

This guide provides comprehensive standards for achieving auditability and transparency in Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) research. It teaches researchers how to document non-shareable evidence, such as field interviews, log traces, and system deployments, by focusing on detailed analysis trails, decision logs, and rigorous process documentation, thus strengthening academic rigor.

A comprehensive guide for authors submitting to Computer Science journals, detailing how to achieve full experimental reproducibility. It systematically covers locking environments (dependencies, hardware, seeds), preventing data leakage, structuring the submission package, and creating a clear audit trail so reviewers can independently reproduce all main results from raw data.

A comprehensive planning tool for developmental psychology researchers designing studies that must support a claim of change. It systematically guides users through critical methodological issues, including addressing age vs. cohort confounds, planning for measurement invariance across ages, handling attrition, and properly justifying sample size for growth slopes. Essential for strengthening the pre-analysis plan of longitudinal and cross-sectional designs.

This skill guides authors on submitting original, high-quality, and reusable Earth System datasets (observations, reanalysis, model outputs) as primary publications. It assesses whether the work fits the criteria of a 'data paper,' requiring open deposition in a FAIR repository with a persistent DOI, detailed provenance documentation, and rigorous quality control. It serves as a venue-selection and manuscript re-framing tool.

This guide outlines the specialized strategy for revising academic papers following a panel discussion at Economic Policy (EP). Since the discussants' comments are published alongside the final paper, the rebuttal must be fully integrated into the revised text. It teaches systematic triage—deciding whether to fix, concede, or defend every critique—to maintain academic rigor and policy coherence.

Provides a comprehensive, structured strategy for authors responding to referee reports and revising highly technical econometric manuscripts for submission to top-tier journals like The Econometrics Journal (EctJ). It guides authors on differentiating between validity-critical, applied-value-critical, and compression-risk issues, ensuring the response is rigorous, concise, and systematically addresses all methodological and empirical gaps.

This guide outlines best practices for achieving high levels of research reproducibility for academic papers, particularly in database and systems research. It details methods for pinning dataset versions, logging system environments, mapping empirical claims to verifiable evidence, and structuring availability statements. Adherence ensures the work is robust, transparent, and fully verifiable by the scientific community.

A comprehensive project management guide for submitting database systems papers to EDBT. It details the complexities of the multiple-cycle rolling publication model, covering everything from initial evidence lock and cycle selection to the five-step review arc (Submission, Author Feedback, Revision, etc.). Use this to backward-plan your research timeline and manage the entire academic publishing process.

This router guides researchers through the systematic process of preparing a manuscript for Experimental Economics (ExpEcon), the ESA's flagship journal. It identifies the correct specialized skills (e.g., theory modeling, robustness checks, referee strategy, rebuttal) needed at each stage, ensuring adherence to methodological rigor, including incentive compatibility and the no-deception norm. It is designed to help teams structure their research from initial design to final submission.
