jpsp-review-process
Use to understand how a Journal of Personality and Social Psychology (JPSP) manuscript is judged — per-section editors, masked review, the theoretical-innovation gate, central vs. peripheral limitations, and decision categories. Sets expectations; it does not predict any specific editor's or reviewer's verdict.

# Review Process — Per Section (jpsp-review-process) JPSP is reviewed **inside one of three independently edited sections**, by an editor and reviewers who are **mutually masked** to the authors. Knowing how *your* section frames decisions helps you anticipate what reviewers will ask. The IRGP section has published an unusually explicit review model (below); ASC and PPID share the masked, theory-first culture but set their own specifics (verify). ## When to trigger - Anticipating how the section will evaluate the paper before submitting - Interpreting a decision letter's framing (innovation, central vs. peripheral limitations) - Deciding whether a prospective design should be a Registered Report (Stage 1) ## How the section judges a paper 1. **Section routing.** The paper is handled by the editor of the section you submitted to (ASC, IRGP, or PPID); a mis-fit paper can be re-routed or returned. Choose the section deliberately (`jpsp-topic-selection`). 2. **Triage.** Papers limited in theoretical scope or methodologically deficient may be **triaged (desk-screened)** so authors can move on quickly (IRGP guidance; verify per section). 3. **Innovation gate.** Reviewers first judge whet

What does the jpsp-review-process skill do?

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