Use when deciding whether an econometrics paper fits The Econometrics Journal's leading-case, applied-value bar rather than Journal of Econometrics, Econometric Theory, Quantitative Economics, Review of Economics and Statistics, or a field journal.
When to use
- deciding if a paper fits The Econometrics Journal
- evaluating leading-case contribution
- checking applied value of econometrics paper
- routing between EctJ and Econometric Theory
- routing between EctJ and Journal of Econometrics
- routing between EctJ and field journals
- assessing fit for compact format
- scoring fit for staggered-adoption designs
When not to use
- generic repository for any econometric technique
- papers where Monte Carlo evidence substitutes for applied relevance
- contributions almost entirely formal needing longer theorem development
- papers broader, longer, or more exhaustive than compact format
- econometric novelty mainly a tool for substantive economics result
- methods with applied value only in one proprietary dataset
- topics exhaustively treated in long-format journals without new leading case
- prediction-accuracy papers without an econometric object
