jcr-tables-figures
Use when building the exhibits for a Journal of Consumer Research (JCR) manuscript — study-summary tables, mediation/moderation results, interaction and spotlight plots, conceptual/process figures, and CCT data displays — in Chicago house style, mindful of the 60-page embedding rule and the web appendix. Late-stage polish; settle the contribution first (jcr-contribution-framing).

Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Tables & Figures (jcr-tables-figures) ## When to trigger - Exhibits are cluttered, inconsistent, or not self-explanatory - You need a clear way to summarize a multi-study experimental package - An interaction or mediation result needs a readable plot - You are deciding what stays in the manuscript vs. the web appendix ## Remember the JCR page-counting convention JCR caps the manuscript at **60 double-spaced pages**, and crucially **tables and figures are embedded and count toward that cap** (the cap covers title, abstract, main text with tables/figures embedded, appendices, and references). So exhibits are not "free" the way they are at venues that exclude them — design them to **earn their space**. Move overflow stimuli, full instruments, additional study tables, and supplementary plots to the **web appendix** (max 40 MB), which is distinct from a manuscript appendix and does **not** count toward the cap. ## Exhibits for the experimental package - **Study-summary table:** one row per study with design, manipulation, key DV, N, and the result — lets reviewers see the convergent multi-study logic at a glance. - **Means/cells:** report condition means with SDs and Ns; show the pred

What does the jcr-tables-figures skill do?

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jcr-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.
