Use when targeting Journal of Applied Econometrics (JAE) or deciding whether an applied-econometric manuscript that brings methods to a substantive economic question fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, method-and-evidence bar, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

It rewards papers that either apply existing methods in a careful, illuminating way or develop a method that is demonstrably useful in a real application; it is methods-in-application, not pure econometric theory. The readership is applied econometricians, so both the method and the empirical payoff must be convincing. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current official submission guidelines. Before submitting, re-check the live author instructions on the journal/Wiley site and the editorial submission system. ## When to trigger - The author names JAE as the target venue, or wants a home for a methods-in-application empirical paper. - A paper develops or applies an econometric method and the empirical application is central. - A data-rich empirical paper needs re-framing so the e

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill journal-of-applied-econometrics --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 984 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.
