red-identification-strategy

separate

Use when making the inferential backbone of a Review of Economic Dynamics (RED) manuscript credible, adapting to the paper type. For theoretical/computational papers it covers model assumptions, regularity conditions, and what disciplines the parameters; for empirical dynamic papers it covers causal design. RED's scope spans all three, so this skill branches accordingly.

When to use

• Establishing why the paper's central claim is credible
• Theoretical/computational dynamic models
• Methodological/computational-method papers
• Empirical dynamic papers
• Parameter discipline documentation
• Model-solution audit
• Causal/identification design

When not to use

• Importing reduced-form identification language into calibrated models
• Hiding free parameters or equilibrium-existence gaps
• Asserting generality without showing what relaxing assumptions does
