smr-workflow

Use when sequencing a Sociological Methods & Research (SMR) manuscript from method-contribution fit through derivation and properties, Monte Carlo simulation, real-data empirical illustration, released software, ScholarOne submission, double-anonymized review, and rebuttal. Routes to the right SMR skill; does not itself draft sections.

From the SKILL.md

# SMR Workflow Use this as the router for Sociological Methods & Research (SMR), the SAGE quantitative- and statistical-methodology flagship. SMR publishes papers that **develop, evaluate, or critically assess** methods; a pure application with no methodological contribution is out of scope. Reopen the live SAGE author instructions before any deadline-ready advice — review model, fees, and policy wording can change. ## Route map - Fit unclear, or the "method" is really just an application: use `smr-topic-selection`. - The new estimator/design/diagnostic and what it fixes are fuzzy: use `smr-method-contribution`. - Methods-literature placement weak or sibling-journal confusion: use `smr-literature-positioning`. - Assumptions, identification, bias/consistency/efficiency not pinned down: use `smr-derivation-and-properties`. - Monte Carlo design thin or competitors missing: use `smr-simulation-studies`. - No real-data demonstration that the method matters substantively: use `smr-empirical-illustration`. - Exhibits crowded, not self-contained, or hiding the simulation grid: use `smr-tables-figures`. - Prose buries the contribution or violates ASA/abstract rules: use `smr-writing-style`.

About this skill
What does the smr-workflow skill do?

Use when sequencing a Sociological Methods & Research (SMR) manuscript from method-contribution fit through derivation and properties, Monte Carlo simulation, real-data empirical illustration, released software, ScholarOne submission, double-anonymized review, and rebuttal. Routes to the right SMR skill; does not itself draft sections.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill smr-workflow --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.
