jmr-literature-positioning
Use when positioning a Journal of Marketing Research (JMR) manuscript against the closest behavioral, modeling, and methods literatures so the contribution reads as a genuine advance — not a better application of an existing design or model. Spans both of JMR's methodological streams and uses AMA author-year citation conventions.

Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Literature Positioning (jmr-literature-positioning) ## When to trigger - The front end reads as "we apply method X to context Y" (a better-application risk) - The closest prior papers — by method, model, and substance — are not named and distinguished - A reviewer might say "this has been done" or "the marginal contribution is unclear" - You are unsure which literature(s) you are actually contributing to ## Position on three axes at once Because JMR spans behavioral experiments and econometric/structural modeling, a JMR paper usually sits in **three** conversations simultaneously. Map the nearest papers in each: 1. **Substantive** — the marketing phenomenon (e.g., pricing, advertising, choice, satisfaction, channels). What do we currently believe, and what does your paper change? 2. **Method / model** — the design or estimator lineage (e.g., the experimental paradigm, the demand model, the identification strategy). Whose approach are you extending, and how is yours different or better? 3. **Mechanism / theory** — the process or economic primitive your paper advances. A contribution that is new on only the substantive axis but mechanically identical to prior work, or new only on m

What does the jmr-literature-positioning skill do?
Use when positioning a Journal of Marketing Research (JMR) manuscript against the closest behavioral, modeling, and methods literatures so the contribution reads as a genuine advance — not a better application of an existing design or model. Spans both of JMR's methodological streams and uses AMA author-year citation conventions.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jmr-literature-positioning --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.
