Skill UI

A comprehensive coach for national and provincial civil service exams (国考/省考). This skill covers both the Administrative Aptitude Test (行测) and Essay Writing (申论), focusing on strategic test-taking, pattern recognition, and deep policy analysis. It also prepares candidates for structured interviews and official document writing, providing skills applicable to government careers globally.

This skill guides researchers on how to triage numerous robustness checks for short-format academic manuscripts (e.g., AER: Insights) constrained by word and exhibit limits. It teaches the 'minimum credible set' approach: identifying the 1-2 core checks that defend the central hypothesis for the main text, while systematically moving all supplementary checks to the Appendix and properly signposting them in one sentence to maintain credibility.

A comprehensive guide for structuring and refining academic research topics in Public Administration. It assists users in moving from broad, vague domains to concrete, theory-grounded, and publishable research questions. The guide emphasizes theoretical positioning, defining distinct contributions, and matching the paper's nature to appropriate academic journals.

This guide helps researchers evaluate if their research question is sufficiently focused on core entrepreneurial mechanisms (e.g., opportunity, effectuation, new venture creation) and if ETP is the appropriate academic home. It provides critical filters (substitution, conversation, practice) to ensure the work is theory-forward and highly relevant to the entrepreneurial discipline.

This guide helps researchers assess whether their empirical work or research question possesses sufficient breadth, economic magnitude, and general-interest appeal to be suitable for top-tier, flagship finance journals like the Journal of Finance (JF). It focuses on sharpening the contribution's framing and determining its reach across various subfields, rather than conducting the empirical analysis itself.

This skill provides a comprehensive guide for researchers to pressure-test whether their public administration project is suitable for the Journal of Public Administration Research and Theory (JPART). It emphasizes contributing to or testing public-management theory rather than merely presenting policy findings, helping users refine research questions and determine the most appropriate academic venue (JPART, PAR, JPAM, Governance).

This guide teaches the 'trust-minimum principle' for writing methods sections in short scientific letters (like PRL). It instructs authors on how to rigorously partition their work, keeping only the essential, trust-bearing details (setup, key controls, uncertainties) in the body, while relegating full derivations and extensive apparatus details to the Supplemental Material (SM). This ensures brevity without sacrificing scientific credibility.

This tool serves as an orchestrator for developing Public Administration Review (PAR) manuscripts. It guides researchers through the entire writing lifecycle—from initial topic selection and literature positioning to theory building, data analysis, and final submission/rebuttal. It helps users determine the most appropriate article type (e.g., Scholarly Take, Conceptualizing PA) and maps the necessary steps to ensure the work bridges both academic theory and practical public management relevance.

A comprehensive guide for polishing Public Administration Review (PAR) manuscripts. It teaches authors how to structure content to appeal equally to academic scholars and reflective public practitioners. Focus areas include establishing the 'Evidence for Practice' bridge, tightening prose, adhering to strict formatting (APA, word count), and ensuring the core argument remains clear and actionable for both audiences.
