jae-writing-style

separate

Use when polishing the prose of a Journal of Accounting and Economics (JAE) manuscript — economics-paper conventions (precise, hypothesis-driven, restrained), Elsevier author-date (Harvard) referencing, numbered sections, and the mandatory Highlights/keywords/JEL packaging — so the writing matches the positive-accounting tradition.

When to use

• Polishing JAE manuscript prose
• Applying economics-paper conventions
• Formatting Elsevier author-date references
• Structuring numbered sections
• Creating Highlights, keywords, and JEL codes
• Matching causal verbs to identification
• Executing a style execution pass
• Checking venue-level claims and contributions

When not to use

• Writing essays
• Using normative or promotional language
• Using numbered or Vancouver reference styles
• Burying results until after methods
• Using unsupported causal language
