This guide provides comprehensive rules for polishing scientific manuscripts to meet the rigorous standards of the Journal of the American Chemical Society (JACS). It focuses on refining language, ensuring structural clarity, standardizing nomenclature and units, and enforcing 'Claim Discipline' by replacing vague boosters (e.g., 'novel,' 'dramatically improved') with concrete data and quantitative evidence. Ideal for authors whose data is solid but whose prose requires academic refinement.

This guide provides a framework for authors to elevate their research findings beyond mere correlation. It teaches how to articulate a strong, economically significant contribution to journals like JAE by identifying underlying mechanisms, resolving economic tensions, and establishing credible causal links. Ideal for refining introductions and discussions in quantitative academic papers.

A comprehensive guide for writing and auditing scientific manuscripts according to JAMA standards. It enforces the proper structured headings (e.g., Importance, Objective, Results) and mandates the inclusion of quantitative data like effect sizes and 95% Confidence Intervals (CIs). This skill ensures the abstract and Key Points are concise, consistent, and highly focused on primary outcomes.

This guide helps authors structure their academic paper's contribution statement for journals like JAMS. It emphasizes the mandatory dual mandate: developing both a consequential theoretical understanding and a concrete, quantifiable managerial action. Use this skill when your results are strong, but you need to clearly articulate the 'so what' for both academia and industry, particularly when facing 'incremental' critiques.

A comprehensive guide for drafting and polishing academic manuscripts for the Journal of Applied Econometrics (JAE). This skill ensures adherence to strict house conventions, including writing citation-free 100-word abstracts, structuring quantitative findings, correctly reporting estimated coefficients with standard errors, and managing front matter (keywords, acknowledgments, COI statements).

A comprehensive guide for authors handling a journal's revise-and-resubmit (R&R) decision. It outlines the critical sequence: prioritizing new analyses (identification, channel, measurement) over writing, triaging referee concerns (first-order vs. second-order), drafting evidence-backed responses, and updating the complete data-and-code package. Essential for quantitative researchers aiming for publication.

A comprehensive guide for advanced quantitative research, focusing on demonstrating the validity of econometric methods. It outlines best practices for combining rigorous Monte Carlo simulations (stress-testing DGPs, baselines) with substantive real-world data applications, essential for publication in high-impact economics and statistics journals.

A specialized structural review pass designed to polish academic manuscripts for top development economics journals like the Journal of Development Economics (JDE). It guides authors to ensure the narrative emphasizes the core development question, quantifies findings with magnitudes, and clearly articulates policy implications for development policymakers and academic readers.

A comprehensive guide for structuring quantitative exhibits for scholarly manuscripts, specifically tailored for educational psychology journals. It focuses on adhering to APA 7th edition standards, accurately presenting model-based results, effect sizes with confidence intervals (CIs), growth trajectories, and ensuring full anonymization for masked review. It teaches researchers how to make complex statistical arguments legible and reproducible.

Provides comprehensive guidelines for authors submitting empirical, quantitative, or theoretical growth papers. It details how to package data sources, code pipelines, calibration files, and historical/geospatial artifacts to meet stringent reproducibility standards for publishing journals.

This guide provides advanced strategies for positioning a research contribution within the complex academic landscape of Economic Geography. It emphasizes that strong positioning must bridge multiple, distinct scholarly frontiers (e.g., quantitative-spatial economics and evolutionary geography) rather than focusing on a single literature, ensuring the work meets the rigorous standards of top-tier journals.

A comprehensive guide for authors submitting manuscripts to cross-disciplinary journals (e.g., Economics and Geography). It details how to anticipate and pre-emptively address systematic objections from two distinct scholarly communities, ensuring the paper satisfies both rigorous quantitative methods and deep spatial theory. Use this when your work bridges two fields and needs to survive double-anonymous review.
