Journal Of Applied Econometrics Skills

Agent skill stack for manuscripts targeted at the Journal of Applied Econometrics (JAE) — Wiley's home for empirical, replicable economics that applies and develops econometric techniques on real data (applications over pure theory). Built around JAE's signature norms: mandatory deposit to the famous JAE Data Archive (since 1994, now hosted at ZBW) with plain-ASCII/CSV readme-documented data, a ha

▌
Jape Rebuttal · brycewang-stanford
Use when drafting the response letter for a Journal of Applied Econometrics (JAE) revise-and-resubmit — replying to single-blind anonymous referees and the Editor-in-Chief on applied-econometrics objections (identification on real data, inference, robustness) while keeping the JAE Data Archive package in sync with every revised result.

▌
Jape Workflow · brycewang-stanford
Use when planning the full Journal of Applied Econometrics (JAE) manuscript lifecycle end to end — confirming an applied (not pure-theory) fit, running reproducible analysis under the 35-page limit, and staging the mandatory JAE Data Archive deposit. Orchestrator skill; routes to the other eleven.

▌
Jape Submission · brycewang-stanford
Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for the Journal of Applied Econometrics (JAE) via Editorial Express — Free Format PDF submission, the 100-word citation-free summary, the 35-page limit, any-consistent-style references, the no-submission-fee policy, the optional open-access charge, and the three-papers-under-review cap. Final checks; it does not draft content.

▌
Jape Data Analysis · brycewang-stanford
Use when running estimation and inference for a Journal of Applied Econometrics (JAE) manuscript so the analysis is reproducible and archive-ready — every table/figure regeneratable from plain-text data and programs you will deposit in the JAE Data Archive. Covers robust inference, master-script discipline, Monte Carlo evidence, and the archive's plain-ASCII/CSV format rule.

▌
Jape Writing Style · brycewang-stanford
Use when drafting or polishing prose for a Journal of Applied Econometrics (JAE) manuscript to its house conventions — a 100-word citation-free summary, up to six keywords, sectioned structure, a conflict-of-interest statement, acknowledgments that do not thank reviewers, and citation-style-agnostic Free Format references.

▌
Jape Review Process · brycewang-stanford
Use when navigating the Journal of Applied Econometrics (JAE) editorial process — single-blind peer review by anonymous reviewers in addition to the Editor, with final accept/reject authority vested in the Editor-in-Chief, plus the three-papers-under-review cap and the rule that rejected papers are not resubmittable unless invited.

▌
Jape Tables Figures · brycewang-stanford
Use when building tables and figures for a Journal of Applied Econometrics (JAE) manuscript under the hard 35-page article limit — keeping core exhibits in the main text while pushing extended results into the unlimited online appendix, and ensuring every exhibit is regeneratable for the JAE Data Archive.

▌
Jape Topic Selection · brycewang-stanford
Use when deciding whether a project fits the Journal of Applied Econometrics (JAE) — an applied (not pure-theory) journal publishing empirical, replicable work that applies or develops econometric techniques on real data. Tests scope fit, the replicability requirement, and the Research vs. Replication Article tracks before you commit.

▌
Jape Contribution Framing · brycewang-stanford
Use when framing the headline contribution of a Journal of Applied Econometrics (JAE) manuscript — as an empirical application on real data whose results are replicable, rather than a pure-theory advance. Calibrates claims to what the data and design support and compresses into the 100-word summary.

▌
Jape Literature Positioning · brycewang-stanford
Use when positioning a Journal of Applied Econometrics (JAE) manuscript against prior work — applied-econometrics precedent, the methods you apply, and JAE's own corpus and Data Archive of replicable papers. Frames the gap as an application/replication advance under JAE's citation-style-agnostic Free Format.

▌
Jape Identification Strategy · brycewang-stanford
Use when designing or defending the empirical identification of a Journal of Applied Econometrics (JAE) manuscript — a credible strategy applied to real data, with assumptions stated, tested, and reproducible. Covers time-series, panel, IV, and quasi-experimental designs typical of applied econometrics, tying every claim to depositable evidence.

▌
Jape Replication And Data Policy · brycewang-stanford
Use when assembling the mandatory JAE Data Archive deposit for an accepted Journal of Applied Econometrics paper — plain-ASCII/CSV data with a readme, the programs that replicate every result, and the confidential-data exception. Encodes the archive's actual format rules (no bare .dta/SAS) and its history (Queen's 1994–2022, now ZBW).
