separate

Use when the contribution of a Journal of Econometrics (JoE) manuscript relative to the econometrics literature is fuzzy or undersold. Locates the paper precisely against the nearest estimators, tests, and asymptotic results so referees see the methodological delta.

When to use

• locating paper against nearest estimators
• locating paper against nearest tests
• locating paper against asymptotic results
• identifying single nearest method
• mapping lineage of results
• pre-empting special case objections
• testing manuscript against econometrics reviewer expectations
• comparing against neighboring venues

When not to use

• literature dump
• summarizing papers without stating delta
• claiming novel against a strawman
• comparing only on intuition
• over-broad claims
