A comprehensive strategy guide for mathematical authors to stress-test their proofs before submission. It outlines how expert academic referees rigorously review work, advising on strengthening weak steps, verifying external theorems, clarifying the core argument, and handling boundary cases to significantly improve the manuscript's rigor and chances of acceptance.

A comprehensive guide to the rigorous standards for structuring pure mathematics manuscripts, specifically detailing the proper use of appendices and auxiliary material. It teaches authors how to distinguish between the essential core argument (which must remain in the main text) and supplementary technical results, long computations, or background lemmas (which belong in the appendix). This ensures the main text remains focused while maintaining academic rigor and verifiability for peer review.

This guide provides comprehensive methodological blueprints for designing scholarly manuscripts submitted to Accounting, Organizations and Society (AOS). It covers various research paradigms, including qualitative field studies, behavioral experiments, surveys, and historical/archival inquiries. Emphasis is placed on rigorous planning, ethical considerations (IRB approval, consent, anonymity), and maintaining theoretical alignment between the research design and the core argument, helping researchers avoid methodological pitfalls.

This guide provides a methodological framework for drastically streamlining complex academic models, whether theoretical or structural/empirical. It teaches how to Strip assumptions, retain only the necessary components, and present the argument such that the entire paper focuses on delivering one distinct, surprising insight. Generalizations and lengthy proofs belong in the appendix, keeping the main text maximally focused and concise.

This comprehensive guide provides a rigorous methodology for constructing evidence-based tables and figures for academic manuscripts. It instructs authors on how to organize and present evidence—covering qualitative data inventories, experimental cell-means, process models, and archival findings—ensuring every exhibit is self-contained and directly supports the core argument, meeting the stringent standards of top academic publishers.

A comprehensive guide for transforming descriptive or mechanical drafts into highly disciplined, theory-driven, and continuous argumentative prose. It teaches authors how to adopt the 'AOS register'—anchoring every interpretive move to evidence—and master crucial elements like terminology management, self-contained abstracts, and rigorous anonymization for top-tier academic journal submissions.

This guide assists researchers in strengthening the methodological rigor of academic work, particularly in political science. It provides structured methods for defending research design, covering rigorous causal identification for quantitative work (e.g., DiD, IV, RDD) and systematic case selection/process tracing for qualitative analysis. Use this when facing reviewer skepticism or preparing a pre-analysis plan to ensure the evidence credibly connects to the theoretical argument.

This skill guides the process of elevating specific empirical findings into general, portable theoretical contributions suitable for high-level academic journals. It focuses on structuring the core argument by explicitly defining mechanisms, scope conditions, observable implications, and conceptual stakes, transforming mere results into discipline-level theory.

This framework provides a systematic methodology for imposing a strong analytical structure or taxonomy on academic literature, particularly for Annual Reviews (ARE). It guides the writer to move beyond merely compiling annotated bibliographies and instead building a cohesive argument about an entire field. Users select a primary 'spine' (e.g., taxonomy, unifying model, question sequence) to organize research, ensuring the review is both comprehensive and highly accessible to non-specialists.

This framework guides the creation of high-impact academic literature reviews, transforming a mere annotated bibliography into a cohesive, argumentative essay. It helps researchers impose a unifying 'spine'—such as a taxonomy, process model, or levels of analysis—to make complex psychological fields legible and accessible to non-specialist readers. Ideal for synthesizing scattered research into a single, powerful argument.

This guide details the critical process of revising a scholarly review article following feedback from journal editors or peer reviewers (e.g., ARPsych). It provides a structured methodology for addressing coverage gaps, ensuring balance, correcting inaccuracies, and maintaining the integrity of the manuscript's core argument (the 'spine'). It covers everything from point-by-point response letters to handling final copyediting queries.

This skill guides the creation of high-impact exhibits—conceptual frameworks and synthesis tables—essential for academic review articles. It teaches how to structure complex literature, making the core argument (the "spine") visible and allowing readers to grasp the field's overall landscape through visual organization, rather than just through descriptive text. Focus is on organization and synthesis.
