Derives rigorous theoretical predictions and confronts them with empirical data and rival models for Psychological Review submissions.

Psychological Review Argument Development guides researchers in structuring the rigorous theoretical arguments required for Psychological Review manuscripts. Because theoretical psychology papers lack primary experimental data as their main contribution, this skill provides the structure for a theoretical results section by systematically deriving predictions from core model assumptions, distinguishing rival-differentiating signature predictions from fitted accommodations, establishing falsifiable tests, and conducting head-to-head confrontations against competing models using existing empirical datasets.
