jais-tables-figures
Use when building the exhibits of a Journal of the Association for Information Systems (JAIS) manuscript — tables, figures, the required SEM correlation/covariance matrix, and theory diagrams — so the body remains a self-contained, APA-styled document. Makes exhibits answer the question; it does not write surrounding prose (jais-writing-style) or run the analysis (jais-data-analysis).

# Tables & Figures (jais-tables-figures) ## When to trigger - Exhibits are cluttered, off APA style, or do not answer the question a reader brings to them - You are relying on multimedia, links, or external files to carry evidence the body should hold - Your SEM paper has no correlation/covariance matrix exhibit yet - A theory/framework paper has no diagram, or a diagram that does not match the prose - A reviewer says a table "buries the result" or a figure "is unreadable in print" ## The JAIS-specific constraint: the body must stand alone JAIS instructs that the article body may include **"text, tables, and figures only"** and that **"the body should function as a standalone document"**; complex materials go in separate files, and **links and multimedia belong in appendices** (检索于 2026-06；以官网为准). This is a real design constraint: every claim a reviewer needs to evaluate must be readable inside the body, on paper, without clicking out. Design exhibits that work in static, printed form. ## The theory figure earns its place at JAIS Because JAIS foregrounds theory, the framework or research-model figure is often the most-read exhibit in the paper — sometimes more than the results tabl

What does the jais-tables-figures skill do?
Use when building the exhibits of a Journal of the Association for Information Systems (JAIS) manuscript — tables, figures, the required SEM correlation/covariance matrix, and theory diagrams — so the body remains a self-contained, APA-styled document. Makes exhibits answer the question; it does not write surrounding prose (jais-writing-style) or run the analysis (jais-data-analysis).
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jais-tables-figures --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.
