Skill UI

This framework guides authors on structuring the contribution section of academic papers, particularly for top-tier journals like JIM. It ensures that theoretical advances are demonstrably driven by the international dimension, and managerial implications translate into actionable, cross-border decision rules, moving beyond generic recommendations.

This skill guides the structuring of theoretical and conceptual frameworks for academic manuscripts, particularly for journals focusing on family science. It helps researchers move beyond simply listing correlations by defining explicit concepts, identifying underlying family mechanisms (e.g., stress process, life course, ecological), and deriving testable hypotheses and scope conditions. It is crucial for transforming empirical findings into a robust, theory-driven contribution.

This comprehensive guide helps researchers move beyond descriptive correlations to build rigorous, theory-driven manuscripts for top-tier IS journals. It outlines how to structure theoretical arguments based on specific research styles, including IT business value mechanisms, platform economics, behavioral models, and economic incentives, emphasizing the derivation of hypotheses and comparative statics before empirical testing.

A comprehensive guide for positioning academic contributions within journals like the Journal of Management Studies (JMS). It teaches authors to frame their work not as filling a 'gap,' but as resolving a theoretical 'tension' or advancing a specific theoretical conversation. The guide outlines key contribution archetypes (Extend, Challenge, Reconcile, Bridge) and best practices for making a rigorous, argument-driven case in the literature review.

This guide helps researchers refine initial ideas into publishable, theory-driven research questions suitable for the Journal of Management Studies (JMS). It emphasizes grounding the research in a real-world organizational phenomenon and ensuring the question moves a defined theoretical conversation, rather than just filling a literature gap.

This guide helps researchers determine if their manuscript is suitable for highly quantitative, theory-driven journals. It emphasizes evaluating the core deliverable—whether it consists of a formal model, provable properties, and an algorithm, rather than relying solely on empirical data or policy recommendations. Essential for optimizing journal submission strategy.

This skill guides researchers through the rigorous 'fit test' for submitting research to a flagship journal like the Journal of Communication (JoC). It helps determine if a project possesses general, cross-disciplinary significance rather than being limited to a specific platform or niche subfield. Use it to elevate case studies into theory-driven mechanisms, significantly improving the scholarly impact of your work.

A detailed guide for scholars submitting social history manuscripts to the Journal of Social History. It outlines the journal's specific scope—covering everyday life, class, gender, and marginalized experiences—and its high academic bar. It emphasizes the need for an original, argument-driven thesis with methodological self-consciousness, guiding authors on source analysis, historiographical positioning, and adherence to Chicago house style.

This guide provides criteria for submitting research to the Journal of Tianjin University of Sport. The journal highly values mechanism-driven studies in exercise physiology, biochemistry, biomechanics, and sports medicine. Submissions must demonstrate rigorous experimental design, detailed measurements, statistical validity, and clear mechanistic interpretation, moving beyond simple descriptive reports.

A comprehensive guide for drafting or polishing academic manuscripts intended for the Journal of Public Administration Research and Theory (JPART). It ensures the paper reads as a theory-driven contribution supported by rigorous evidence, adheres to OUP author-date style, and meets strict word count limitations. Focuses on structuring the abstract, introduction, and theoretical argument.

This guide provides an advanced framework for conducting rigorous causal inference and policy evaluation, essential for academic journals. It covers state-of-the-art methods including DiD, RDD, Synthetic Control, and experimental analysis. The core focus is moving beyond simple p-values to estimate effect magnitudes in tangible 'decision units' (e.g., dollars per household, percentage points). It mandates comprehensive stress-testing, including pre-trend checks, placebo outcomes, and detailed subgroup heterogeneity analysis, ensuring results are immediately actionable by regulators.

This guide provides detailed structural and stylistic rules for authors submitting multi-study manuscripts to the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology (JPSP). It focuses on adhering to strict word caps for the Introduction and Discussion sections using APA 7th format, ensuring the narrative remains focused, theory-driven, and highly concise. Ideal for polishing drafts and structuring complex research arguments.
