# EctJ Review Process Use this to plan around the RES review pipeline. Do not infer the peer-review blinding model; the current official pages reviewed for this pack do not name it. ## Process model - RES states that conforming EctJ submissions are screened by the Editor-in-Chief and possibly an editor. - Within about one week, a paper can be desk-rejected or assigned to an editor. - RES states a target of a decision within about three months. - Resubmissions are normally expected within one month, sometimes three. - Formatting nonconformance is not cosmetic; official instructions say nonconforming submissions are routinely rejected. - Replication package compliance becomes decisive after conditional acceptance. ## Planning implications - Treat the first week as a **scope and conformance gate**: summary, page length, proofs placement, fee, application, and template issues can kill the paper before referees see the technical details. - Treat the three-month target as a reason to submit a complete package. Thin simulations or missing code will become a revision bottleneck rather than a harmless omission. - If desk risk is high, fix the summary and opening two pages first; that is whe

What does the ectj-review-process skill do?

Use when interpreting or planning around The Econometrics Journal's one-week editorial screen, editor assignment, three-month decision target, resubmission window, conformance rejection, and replication checks.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill ectj-review-process --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 909 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.
