Skills in this plugin
12- ▌ Cie Rebuttal · brycewang-stanfordUse when responding to external-review / R&R comments for 《中国工业经济》 (China Industrial Economics). Builds a point-by-point response letter that prioritizes identification and the robustness arms race, revises the manuscript first, and supplies the data/code the journal requires. Do not generate the letter before the text is revised.
- ▌ Cie Workflow · brycewang-stanfordUse when deciding which cie-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from topic selection through rebuttal for 《中国工业经济》 (China Industrial Economics). Routes — does not replace — the specialized skills, and cross-references sibling journal packages.
- ▌ Cie Mechanism · brycewang-stanfordUse when a 《中国工业经济》 (China Industrial Economics) manuscript needs mechanism evidence. Prefers split-channel and moderation (heterogeneity-by-mechanism) regressions and treats the three-step mediation method as suspect — per Jiang (2022, CIE 2022:5), the journal's own methodological-norm guide. Use after the main effect is identified.
- ▌ Cie Submission · brycewang-stanfordUse for the pre-submission preflight to 《中国工业经济》 (China Industrial Economics) — checking length (~2.5万字/18+ pages), 450–500-char abstract + 3–5 keywords, the five abstract components, three-level headings, footnote (页下注) + 实引 reference conventions, the data/code-on-acceptance requirement, double-blind anonymity, and the online system. Verify every rule against the journal's current 投稿（修改）指南.
- ▌ Cie Heterogeneity · brycewang-stanfordUse when the heterogeneity analysis of a 《中国工业经济》 (China Industrial Economics) manuscript is thin — only one crude cut (e.g. east/central/west). Pushes multi-dimensional cuts (ownership, size, industry, factor intensity, market structure, region) each tied to an economic interpretation, not just a significant subsample.
- ▌ Cie Tables Figures · brycewang-stanfordUse when finalizing regression tables and figures for a 《中国工业经济》 (China Industrial Economics) manuscript. Enforces three-line tables, footnote conventions, column discipline, event-study/figure aesthetics — and the journal's hallmark requirement that every key table is followed by an economic-magnitude interpretation, not just significance stars.
- ▌ Cie Fit Positioning · brycewang-stanfordUse to judge whether a manuscript fits 《中国工业经济》 (China Industrial Economics) before drafting, and to re-route if it is theory-heavy (→经济研究 / 经济学季刊), management/case/survey (→管理世界), finance-mechanism (→金融研究), or trade/open-macro (→世界经济). The journal wants empirical engineering, not pure theory or practice notes.
- ▌ Cie Topic Selection · brycewang-stanfordUse to sharpen a topic for 《中国工业经济》 (China Industrial Economics) — anchoring on a clean China-policy quasi-experiment, firm behavior, industrial organization, or the digital economy, backed by stylized facts and 3–5 marginal contributions. Use before drafting, when the research question or contribution is fuzzy.
- ▌ Cie Literature Review · brycewang-stanfordUse when the literature section of a 《中国工业经济》 (China Industrial Economics) manuscript is a citation pile instead of a critical review that locates the gap. Enforces gap-driven 文献述评 (not 罗列), recent-five-year frontier coverage, and a clean separation between literature review and theory analysis.
- ▌ Cie Did Identification · brycewang-stanfordUse when the identification strategy for a 《中国工业经济》 (China Industrial Economics) manuscript is multi-period / staggered DID or an event study. Mandates parallel-trends event-study plots, placebo tests, and modern heterogeneity-robust estimators (Callaway-Sant'Anna, Sun-Abraham, de Chaisemartin-D'Haultfœuille, Goodman-Bacon decomposition) whenever treatment timing varies.
- ▌ Cie Policy Implication · brycewang-stanfordUse when the policy-implication / 启示 section of a 《中国工业经济》 (China Industrial Economics) manuscript is vague. Forces ACTIONABLE recommendations — who, at which node, does what — derived from the findings and heterogeneity. This concreteness is the key difference from 《经济研究》, where implications stay at the significance level.
- ▌ Cie Institutional Background · brycewang-stanfordUse when the policy / institutional background section of a 《中国工业经济》 (China Industrial Economics) manuscript needs accurate detail — exact document names, effective dates, pilot batches and city lists, and the assignment rule that justifies the quasi-experiment. Sloppy policy detail is a frequent desk-reject trigger here.
