Does it support multi-site comparative studies?

Yes, the Comparative cluster specifically guides users through parallel site descriptions and variation-leverage statements, targeting 1,000-1,500 words.

Where should the case justification section be positioned?

While 88% of articles position the case after the theory section, the skill identifies Policy-Driven studies as a specific exception that should precede the theory.

What empirical data is this skill based on?

The skill is grounded in a systematic analysis of 32 interview-based articles published in 'Social Problems' and 'Social Forces' to ensure your draft follows current genre conventions.

Can it help me reduce my word count for space constraints?

Yes, the Minimal Context cluster provides a framework for efficient 300-500 word descriptions suitable for well-known sites or mixed-methods designs.

What are 'opening moves' in this context?

Opening moves are specific rhetorical patterns used to start the section, such as Phenomenon-Site-Link, Institutional-Description, or Geographic-Introduction.
