# Journal of Risk and Uncertainty (journal-of-risk-and-uncertainty) ## Journal positioning The Journal of Risk and Uncertainty is the leading specialist journal on decision-making under risk and uncertainty.

What wins here is a paper that advances how we model or measure choice under risk: a new theory of preferences, a clean test discriminating among models, or a credible valuation of risk. The readership is decision theorists, risk-and-insurance economists, and behavioral researchers. 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 Springer / journal site and the submission system. ## When to trigger - The author names JRU as the target venue. - A paper on risk preferences, ambiguity, or risk valuation needs a specialist decision-science home. - A behavioral or experimental paper centers on choice under risk/uncertainty and needs re-f

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill journal-of-risk-and-uncertainty --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.
