Learning & Documentation

Guides authors through responding to Journal of Economic Perspectives (JEP) editor feedback on accessibility, balance, narrative framing, and length cuts.

The JEP Revision skill assists academic economists in navigating the unique, editor-driven revision process of the Journal of Economic Perspectives. Unlike typical peer-reviewed journals with combative referee reports, JEP revisions require a collaborative posture focused on accessibility, objectivity, and prose tightening. This skill triages managing editor markups, maps comments to concrete revision actions, balances length reductions by trimming non-essential coverage rather than core narrative clarity, and drafts concise, point-by-point response letters that preserve academic rigor without overstating findings.
