isr-data-analysis

Use when executing and reporting the analysis for an Information Systems Research (ISR) manuscript — identification and validity for empirical work, proof discipline and comparative statics for analytical work, and rigorous evaluation for design-science work, with overflow routed to the electronic companion. Runs and reports the analysis; it does not design the study (isr-methods) or frame the contribution (isr-contribution-framing).

# Analysis, Identification & Proof (isr-data-analysis)

## When to trigger

- Data are collected, or the model is built, and it is time to estimate, derive, or evaluate
- You are unsure whether your estimator matches the design, or whether a proof is complete
- Reviewers will probe identification, measurement validity, or assumption sensitivity
- A reviewer says "the analysis does not support the inference"

## Empirical genre — identification and validity first

ISR empirical reviewers expect causal claims to rest on a credible **identification strategy**, not on a fitted regression:

| Design / claim                               | Estimator / strategy                                          |
