misq-tables-figures
Use when designing the exhibits for a MIS Quarterly manuscript — measurement/correlation and structural-model tables for behavioral IS, regression and robustness tables for economics-of-IS, artifact architecture and evaluation exhibits for design science, and a Gioia-style data structure for qualitative work — all sized to fit MISQ's page limit, which counts tables and figures. Late-stage polish; do not run before the contribution and evaluation are settled.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Tables & Figures (misq-tables-figures) ## When to trigger - Exhibits are cluttered, off-style, or not self-explanatory - Tables and figures are eating the page budget (the limit counts them) - A reviewer cannot reconstruct your model, identification, or artifact from the exhibits - You are at the polish stage with a settled contribution ## Every exhibit costs page budget Unlike journals that exclude exhibits from the limit, MISQ page limits **count text, tables, figures, references, and appendices together**, and supplementary materials are discouraged. So each exhibit must earn its space: consolidate, remove decorative figures, and keep only what carries the argument. Plan the exhibit set against the category budget (e.g., 50 pp for a Research Article). ## Choose exhibits by tradition | Tradition | Core exhibits | |-----------|---------------| | **Behavioral** | Construct correlation table (reliabilities on the diagonal), measurement-model table (loadings, AVE, CR), structural-model figure with path coefficients, simple-slopes plot for moderation | | **Economics of IS** | Descriptives/balance table, main regression table, robustness table, an event-study/parallel-trends figure |

What does the misq-tables-figures skill do?

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