jleo-robustness
Use when organizing robustness and sensitivity checks for a Journal of Law, Economics, and Organization (JLEO) manuscript — structuring checks by the institutional/organizational threat each one defuses (selection into governance, reform endogeneity, measurement of institutional constructs, alternative mechanisms). Organizes the robustness program; it does not establish primary identification (jleo-identification).

# Robustness Strategy (jleo-robustness)
## When to trigger
- The main result holds but a referee will ask "is this an artifact of the sample / specification / measurement?"
- The robustness section is a mechanical appendix list ("Table A1–A8") with no threat each addresses
- The institutional measure (asset specificity, governance form, judicial independence) is a proxy whose validity is questionable
- An alternative mechanism could produce the same pattern and is not yet ruled out
- The estimate is sensitive to clustering, controls, or the treatment-timing window
## Robustness as threat-defusal at JLEO
JLEO referees — institutional and organizational economists — do not reward a wall of robustness tables. They reward a robustness program **organized by the specific threats to the institutional claim**. For each headline result, name the threats, then show the check that defuses each. The institution-specific threats cluster as follows:
