# Writing Style for JAE (jape-writing-style)
## When to trigger
- Writing the summary (abstract), keywords, and front matter for a JAE paper
- Checking the manuscript against JAE's specific formatting conventions
- Resolving how to handle references when no house style is mandated
## JAE's specific style rules
- **Summary (abstract): no more than 100 words.** It must be understandable without reference to the rest of the paper and **contain no citations** — state the finding plainly and cut every reference.
- **Up to six keywords.** **Title without abbreviations.**
- **Numbered sections/subsections.**
- **Conflict-of-interest statement required.**
