# Econometrica (econometrica) ## Journal positioning Econometrica is the journal of the Econometric Society and one of the economics "top-5" (with AER, QJE, JPE, REStud) — the most technical of the five. It publishes econometric theory, economic theory, and highly rigorous structural and empirical work, where the contribution is typically a new theorem, a new identification result, or a new estimator, established to the field's highest formal standard. The readership is technically expert; a paper succeeds on the depth and correctness of its formal contribution, not on topical interest alone. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the Econometric Society / Wiley site and the editorial submission system. ## When to trigger - The author names Econometrica (or the top-5 with a technical contribution) as the target venue. - A paper proves new theorems, establishes new identification, or develops a new estimator with full asymptotic theory. - A structural or empirical paper rests on a genuinely new methodological contribution that ne

What does the econometrica skill do?
Use when targeting Econometrica or deciding whether an economics manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, method-and-evidence bar, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill econometrica --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 984 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
