A comprehensive guide for structuring and designing synthesis exhibits for academic literature reviews (e.g., JEL surveys). It teaches how to create 'who-found-what' summary tables, conceptual framework diagrams, and meta-evidence plots that synthesize existing findings across multiple studies, without presenting new, original estimates.

This framework guides researchers in determining if a candidate academic field meets the rigorous criteria—Maturity, Importance, Synthesis Need, and Tractable Scope—required for a major, comprehensive survey article suitable for high-impact journals like the Journal of Economic Literature (JEL). It helps writers move beyond mere topic ideas to frame a compelling, scholarly argument.

This skill acts as a comprehensive workflow router for authors preparing a survey or review article for the Journal of Economic Literature (JEL). It guides users through the entire academic writing lifecycle, from initial topic selection and proposing the scope to systematic literature synthesis, structuring the argument, and handling revisions based on editor/referee feedback. It ensures the output is a scholarly synthesis, not a primary research paper.

A comprehensive preflight guide for authors submitting to the Journal of Economic Theory (JET). It verifies critical technical formatting, reference compliance, ethical disclosures (AI use, data policy), and structural requirements necessary for successful submission via Elsevier Editorial Manager.

A comprehensive workflow router designed for authors submitting highly theoretical manuscripts to the Journal of Economic Theory (JET). It guides users through the entire academic lifecycle—from initial scope assessment and theoretical positioning to drafting, revision (R&R), and final submission. It emphasizes adherence to JET's strict theory-first standards, ensuring every step reduces potential desk or referee risk.

This workflow router guides users through the entire end-to-end process of developing and submitting a high-stakes academic manuscript to The Journal of Finance (JF). It outlines the necessary sequence of steps—from initial topic selection and literature positioning to empirical design, robustness checks, and final rebuttal strategy—ensuring the paper meets the rigorous standards of top-tier finance publications.

This comprehensive guide provides a detailed preflight checklist for submitting academic manuscripts to the Journal of Financial Economics (JFE). It walks authors through critical steps covering formatting standards (e.g., abstract length, citation style), ensuring anonymity, managing mandatory code/data deposits, and verifying submission requirements such as fees and target portals. Use this tool to ensure your paper is submission-ready.

This comprehensive guide provides a final preflight checklist for submitting manuscripts to academic journals like JFI via Editorial Manager. It covers mandatory components, including the submission fee, abstract word limits, keyword requirements, Generative AI declarations, and Option C data plans. It serves as a critical gatekeeping tool to ensure the manuscript meets all technical and procedural standards before final submission.

A comprehensive guide for authors writing empirical papers (especially in finance/economics). It teaches the critical skill of separating load-bearing claims (must be in the main text) from exhaustive supporting evidence (best placed in the Internet Appendix). It details how to build a fully reproducible package, including data lineage, codebooks, and documenting proprietary data access paths.

This router provides a systematic workflow guide for submitting academic manuscripts to top-tier finance journals, such as the Journal of Financial Research. It does not replace specialized skills but dictates the necessary sequence of steps—from initial positioning and topic selection to advanced identification, mechanism analysis, and rebuttal response—ensuring the required academic rigor and structure.

This router guides researchers through the entire lifecycle of writing and submitting a manuscript for the Journal of Health Economics (JHE). It identifies the optimal next step—from initial topic selection and causal design establishment to literature positioning, robustness testing, and handling referee revisions (R&R). It ensures the paper meets the rigorous standards of health economics, guaranteeing a structured, step-by-step approach for maximum publication success.

This skill acts as a sophisticated router for manuscripts aiming for the Journal of Human Resources (JHR). It does not replace specialized analysis skills but guides the user through the entire academic writing lifecycle—from initial topic selection and literature positioning to advanced data analysis, contribution framing, and final submission/rebuttal strategies. It is designed to diagnose workflow bottlenecks when a researcher asks, "What should I do next?"
