Browse reusable Agent Skills, each with a clear purpose and practical guidance.
Use when targeting Operations Research (OR) or deciding whether an optimization / stochastic-models / queueing / applied-mathematical-modeling manuscript fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, framing, method-and-evidence bar, house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.
Use when executing and reporting the analysis for a Public Opinion Quarterly (POQ) manuscript so it survives expert, double-blind review — design-based inference that respects survey weights, strata, and clusters, honest uncertainty, robustness, and reproducibility. POQ verifies that code reproduces every table and figure. Guides analysis norms; it does not fabricate results.
Use to understand how Public Opinion Quarterly (POQ) evaluates a manuscript — double-blind review via ScholarOne Manuscripts, typically two to three referees, the survey-methodology and AAPOR-disclosure bar reviewers apply, and how associate editors may request code/data during review. Sets expectations and shapes the paper to survive review; it does not contact editors.
Use when deciding whether an empirical psychology project fits Psychological Science and which manuscript type to target. The journal favors concise, high-impact, well-powered work whose claims are robust and broadly relevant. Frames the question; it does not collect data.
Use when defining eligibility criteria and coding studies for a Psychological Bulletin review or meta-analysis — inclusion/exclusion rules, a codebook, double-coding, and inter-rater reliability. Governs how studies enter and are coded; effect-size modeling lives in psychbull-meta-analysis-methods.
Use when designing and documenting the systematic literature search for a Psychological Bulletin review or meta-analysis — databases, search strings, grey literature, deduplication, and a PRISMA-compliant records flow. Builds a reproducible search; it does not screen or code studies.
Use when explaining heterogeneity and probing robustness in a Psychological Bulletin meta-analysis — moderator/subgroup analysis, meta-regression, and publication-bias diagnostics (funnel, Egger, trim-and-fill, PET-PEESE, p-curve, selection models) plus sensitivity analyses. Extends the core model; estimation lives in psychbull-meta-analysis-methods.
Use when turning the synthesis results of a Psychological Bulletin manuscript into a genuine theoretical contribution — reconciling conflicting findings, building or refining a model, and stating scope conditions and a research agenda. Makes the synthesis matter; it does not run the analysis.
Use when deciding whether a question is review-worthy and meta-analyzable for Psychological Bulletin and which synthesis type fits (meta-analysis, systematic review, meta-review/meta-synthesis, qualitative review). Tests fit for an APA research-synthesis flagship; it does not write the review.
Use as the entry point for any Psychological Bulletin manuscript. Routes to the right psychbull sub-skill based on where you are in the research-synthesis lifecycle and which synthesis type (meta-analysis, systematic review, meta-review/meta-synthesis, qualitative review) fits. Psychological Bulletin publishes syntheses, not original studies — it dispatches; it does not draft content.
