Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for a Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) proposal or full survey via the AEA ScholarOne portal — proposal vs. full-paper route, disclosure statements, JEL codes, AEA data/code policy, and style-guide compliance.

# Submission Preflight (jel-submission)

## When to trigger

- "Submitting tomorrow" — last check before uploading a proposal or full survey to the AEA portal
- Unsure which route (proposal vs. full paper) and which files the portal expects
- Confirming JEL codes, disclosure statements, and style-guide compliance
- Verifying the AEA data/code policy obligations for a survey that discusses empirical work

## Process facts (检索于 2026-06；以官网为准 — re-confirm on the AEA JEL pages)

- **Publisher / venue.** JEL is published by the **American Economic Association (AEA)**, founded **1969**; it is the AEA's survey-of-record journal, distinct from JEP and AER. Submission is via the AEA's **ScholarOne Manuscripts** portal. The lead editor is **David H. Romer (UC Berkeley)** (appointed July 2022; re-verified 2026-06-22 — re-confirm the masthead on the AEA JEL page before relying).
- **Two intake routes.** (1) **Proposal** — a sketch of **~10 pages (excluding references)** stating the contents, why the topic interests readers, and the main references to be covered; this is the efficient route. (2) **Full paper** — the journal also considers a complete survey; mechanics are the same as for a proposal. A **pre-proposal email to the editor** to test interest is welcomed (editor contact volatile — see `jel-proposal-and-commissioning`).
- **Disclosure (required).** Each (co)author must prepare a separate PDF titled **"Disclosure Statement"** covering financial conflicts of interest and, where applicable, IRB approval. **Submissions without these are treated as incomplete.** AEA disclosure policy applies.
