▌
Poq Rebuttal · brycewang-stanford
Use when writing the response to a Public Opinion Quarterly (POQ) revise-and-resubmit. POQ referees are survey methodologists who often push on Total Survey Error and AAPOR disclosure, so the response must satisfy each referee on substance and method while keeping the associate editor confident the revision converges. Structures the response letter; it does not fabricate new results.

Poq Workflow · brycewang-stanford
Use as the entry point for any Public Opinion Quarterly (POQ) manuscript. Routes to the right POQ sub-skill based on where you are in the lifecycle and which submission type (Original Article, Research Note, Polls in Context, Research Synthesis, Book Review) fits. It dispatches; it does not draft content.

▌
Poq Submission · brycewang-stanford
Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for Public Opinion Quarterly (POQ) via ScholarOne Manuscripts — submission-type selection, double-blind preparation, word caps, AAPOR-standard Appendix A disclosure, the Data Availability Statement, and the replication package. Final checks; it does not draft content.

▌
Poq Data Analysis · brycewang-stanford
Use when executing and reporting the analysis for a Public Opinion Quarterly (POQ) manuscript so it survives expert, double-blind review — design-based inference that respects survey weights, strata, and clusters, honest uncertainty, robustness, and reproducibility. POQ verifies that code reproduces every table and figure. Guides analysis norms; it does not fabricate results.

▌
Poq Writing Style · brycewang-stanford
Use when drafting or polishing a Public Opinion Quarterly (POQ) manuscript so it reads for a public-opinion and survey-methodology audience and fits the type caps (Original Article ≤ 6,500 words of text and notes; Research Note < 3,000; Polls in Context ≤ 2,500). POQ word counts cover text and notes but exclude figures, tables, references, and appendices. Tightens prose and format; it does not invent content.

▌
Poq Review Process · brycewang-stanford
Use to understand how Public Opinion Quarterly (POQ) evaluates a manuscript — double-blind review via ScholarOne Manuscripts, typically two to three referees, the survey-methodology and AAPOR-disclosure bar reviewers apply, and how associate editors may request code/data during review. Sets expectations and shapes the paper to survive review; it does not contact editors.

▌
Poq Tables Figures · brycewang-stanford
Use when building tables and figures for a Public Opinion Quarterly (POQ) manuscript so exhibits are self-contained, accessible, and show survey-based uncertainty correctly. POQ word caps count text and notes but exclude figures and tables, so exhibits carry weight without costing the budget — but they must report design-based uncertainty and weighting. Designs exhibits; it does not run the analysis.

▌
Poq Topic Selection · brycewang-stanford
Use when deciding whether a project fits Public Opinion Quarterly (POQ) and which submission type to target. POQ is the leading journal of public opinion and survey methodology, so the test is a contribution to opinion/communication theory, to current public opinion, or to survey validity — not a generic social-science finding. Helps frame the question; it does not collect data.

▌
Poq Theory And Hypotheses · brycewang-stanford
Use when building the theoretical argument and hypotheses of a Public Opinion Quarterly (POQ) manuscript — whether the contribution is to opinion/communication theory or to survey methodology. POQ rewards explicit constructs, mechanisms, and testable hypotheses, and methods papers need a clear claim about a survey-error source. Structures the argument; it does not run analyses.

▌
Poq Literature Positioning · brycewang-stanford
Use when positioning a Public Opinion Quarterly (POQ) manuscript against the literature so it reads as a contribution to public-opinion or survey-methodology scholarship. POQ readers span opinion theory, communication, political behavior, and survey methods, so the paper must engage the right literatures and show the methodological lineage. Stakes the contribution; it does not write the lit review.

▌
Poq Survey Design And Measurement · brycewang-stanford
Use when defending the survey design and measurement of a Public Opinion Quarterly (POQ) manuscript through the Total Survey Error framework — coverage, sampling, nonresponse, measurement (question wording/order/scales), mode effects, and weighting. POQ is the leading survey-methodology journal and expects AAPOR-standard rigor. Strengthens the design; it does not write code.
