"description": "Use when building the tables and figures for a Journal of Marketing (JM) manuscript — exact-statistic result tables, interaction\/mechanism plots, and managerial-takeaway exhibits in AMA house style, all counting against the 50-page limit. Finalizes exhibits; it does not run the analysis (jm-data-analysis) or polish the prose (jm-writing-style)."

Tables & Figures, AMA Style (jm-tables-figures)
When to trigger
- Results are settled and exhibits need to be built or cleaned up
- Tables show stars only, with no exact p-values, standard errors, or effect sizes
- A figure could carry the managerial takeaway better than a paragraph
- You are over the 50-page limit and exhibits are part of the budget
JM reporting carries into the exhibits
JM's statistical-transparency mandate is not just a text rule — it governs every table. Result tables must show actual p-values (not "p < .05" or stars alone), standard errors, and effect sizes / magnitudes. A reader should be able to judge the substantive importance of an effect from the table, because JM evaluates managerial relevance, not significance counts. Prefer reporting coefficients with SEs and exact p-values, and add a column or note giving the effect in interpretable units (elasticity, lift, WTP, welfare) wherever feasible.
Mind the 50-page budget
JM enforces a 50-page maximum that is inclusive of title, abstract, keywords, text, footnotes, references, tables, figures, and print appendices; only web appendices are excluded. Every table and figure therefore spends pages. Design exhibits to earn their space: consolidate redundant tables, move secondary results to a web appendix, and ensure each remaining exhibit answers a question a reviewer or manager actually asks.
What each exhibit type should do
- Descriptives / correlation table: sample composition and construct relationships at a glance; reliabilities on the diagonal where multi-item scales are used.
- Main results table(s): coefficients, SEs, exact p-values, effect sizes; clearly labeled models/specifications; the identification design legible from the table.
- Interaction / mechanism figure: simple-slopes or marginal-effects plot for moderation; a mediation diagram with indirect-effect estimates and CIs for process.
- Managerial-takeaway exhibit: a figure that converts the result into a decision-relevant quantity (e.g., predicted sales/CLV across a manipulated lever) — this is where JM's dual mandate shows in the exhibits.
- Study-design / conceptual figure: a clean model or multi-study roadmap when it aids comprehension.
AMA house-style essentials
- Author-date conventions in notes; consistent decimal places; defined abbreviations.
- 12-point font; tables and figures may be single-spaced; 1-inch margins; no page numbers, line numbers, headers, or footers in the file.
- Each exhibit self-contained: a title, complete notes (N, estimator, SE type, significance reporting), and units, readable without the text.
- Number consistently and reference every exhibit in the text in order.
Execution bridge (StatsPAI / Stata MCP)
Generate exhibits from the fitted result, not by retyping numbers (the usual source of
body-vs-appendix drift). Full map: execution-with-mcp. JM is empirical marketing — field experiments, panel/CRM data, and quasi-experiments; randomization inference for experiments, DiD / IV for observational claims.
- Tables:
etable(multi-model columns) ordid_summary_to_latexstraight from theresult_id. - Figures:
plot_from_result/enhanced_event_study_plot/event_study_table— axis units and the SE/clustering note baked in. - Every note names the estimator + clustering and states the effect size in interpretable units.
See a full fitted-result → exhibit chain in the JF execution walkthrough.
Checklist
- Tables report exact p-values, SEs, and effect sizes (no stars-only)
- At least one exhibit conveys the managerial magnitude in real units
- Interaction plotted; mediation shown with indirect effects + CIs
- Each exhibit self-contained (title, full notes, N, estimator, units)
- Redundant tables consolidated; secondary results moved to web appendix
- Total exhibits fit within the 50-page inclusive budget
- AMA formatting: 12-pt, no page/line numbers/headers/footers
Anti-patterns
- Stars-only tables with no exact p-values, SEs, or magnitudes.
- Significance without managerial meaning — no units a decision maker reads.
- Exhibit bloat that pushes the manuscript over 50 pages.
- Non-self-contained exhibits that require the text to interpret.
- Inconsistent numbering / undefined abbreviations.
Output format
【Tables】exact p / SE / effect size present? specifications labeled?
【Managerial exhibit】magnitude in real units shown? where ...
【Interaction/mediation】simple slopes / indirect-effect plot present?
【Self-containment】titles + full notes + units complete?
【Page budget】exhibits fit 50-page inclusive limit? web appendix used?
【AMA format】12-pt, no page/line numbers/headers/footers: ok?
【Next step】jm-writing-style
