jpe-topic-selection

separate

Use when scoping or framing a research question for a Journal of Political Economy (JPE) manuscript and you need to test whether it is "JPE-shaped" — i.e., a mechanism-driven economic question, not an atheoretical correlation. Diagnoses fit and frames the contribution; it does not design the empirics.

When to use

• scoping a research question for JPE
• framing a research question for JPE
• testing if a question is JPE-shaped
• diagnosing fit for JPE
• framing the contribution
• deciding between JPE proper and companion journals

When not to use

• designing the empirics
