jcr-rebuttal
Use when responding to a Journal of Consumer Research (JCR) revise-and-resubmit — planning the revision, running new studies or analyses, satisfying the transparency requirements that become mandatory at invited revision, and drafting a point-by-point response letter for double-anonymized re-review. Drafts the response after the revision is real; it does not interpret the decision (jcr-review-process).

# Revision & Rebuttal (jcr-rebuttal) ## When to trigger - You received a JCR R&R and need a plan plus a response letter - Reviewers want additional studies, process evidence, or analyses - You must satisfy data/materials posting now required at invited revision - You are reconciling conflicting reviewer requests across disciplines ## Revise first, write the letter second A JCR response letter documents revisions that already exist. Sequence the work: 1. **Triage by the editor's priorities.** The co-editor's letter signals which concerns are decisive — fix those substantively, not cosmetically. 2. **Strengthen the conceptual contribution.** If reviewers found it incremental, sharpen the advance/deepen/repudiate claim (`jcr-contribution-framing`) — re-running studies will not save a thin contribution. 3. **Add the evidence the genre demands.** Experiments: new studies for **process** (manipulated mediator, predicted moderators), replications across stimuli/populations, cleaner inference (`jcr-data-analysis`). CCT: deeper grounding, additional informants, a tighter audit trail. 4. **Reconcile conflicts transparently.** Where reviewers disagree, choose a defensible path, explain the re

What does the jcr-rebuttal skill do?
Use when responding to a Journal of Consumer Research (JCR) revise-and-resubmit — planning the revision, running new studies or analyses, satisfying the transparency requirements that become mandatory at invited revision, and drafting a point-by-point response letter for double-anonymized re-review. Drafts the response after the revision is real; it does not interpret the decision (jcr-review-process).
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jcr-rebuttal --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.
