aerj-rebuttal

Use when writing the response to an American Educational Research Journal (AERJ) revise-and-resubmit. AERJ R&Rs come back through the handling editor and multiple masked reviewers, so the response must convert each reviewer while keeping the editor confident the revision is convergent. Structures the response letter; it does not fabricate new results.

# R&R Rebuttal (aerj-rebuttal)

An AERJ **R&R is a strong signal** — but acceptance generally needs the **handling editor** satisfied
and the **reviewers** moved toward yes. The response letter must address every comment, defend the
contribution, and keep the revision coherent. The editor adjudicates; reviewers advise.

## When to trigger

- An R&R decision arrived and you are planning the revision + response letter
- Reviewers disagree with each other and you must reconcile their demands
- A reviewer requests analyses or reframing that would change the paper's claims
- Writing the cover note to the handling editor summarizing the revision
