Jep Submission · brycewang-stanford bundle

▌
Jep Narrative Arc · brycewang-stanford
Use when structuring a Journal of Economic Perspectives (JEP) article as a story/argument for a general economist reader rather than a literature survey. Builds the essay's spine (hook → tension → synthesis → takeaways); it does not handle sentence-level voice or evidence presentation.

Jep Proposal And Symposium · brycewang-stanford

▌
Jep Evidence Without Equations · brycewang-stanford

▌
Jep Exhibits For General Readers · brycewang-stanford
Use when designing figures and tables for a Journal of Economic Perspectives (JEP) article aimed at a broad audience — clarity over density, self-explanatory exhibits. Handles exhibit design; defer prose evidence to jep-evidence-without-equations and overall structure to jep-narrative-arc.

▌
Jep Accessibility And Translation · brycewang-stanford
Use when translating technical results, models, and methods into plain language for a Journal of Economic Perspectives (JEP) article — minimizing jargon and notation without dumbing down.
