eer-tables-figures

Use when building or revising exhibits for a European Economic Review (EER) manuscript so they report standard errors, read cleanly, and follow Elsevier economics norms. Designs tables and figures; it does not run the estimation or write the surrounding prose.

# Tables & Figures (eer-tables-figures)

## When to trigger

- Tables are dense, over-decorated with significance stars, or missing SEs
- Figures are cluttered, lack uncertainty bands, or are not self-explanatory
- A referee said an exhibit is "unreadable" or "buries the result"
- Preparing final editable source files for Elsevier production

## The EER exhibits bar

EER follows **Elsevier economics house style**: a paper is read through its **main tables and a few clean figures**, each **self-contained** (legible without the text). The discipline norm is to **report standard errors** (and, increasingly, confidence intervals) and to **let the magnitude carry the result** rather than a wall of asterisks. Figures and tables can be embedded for review and are supplied as **editable source files** at final stage. Aim for **fewer, sharper exhibits**: the headline result should be findable in one table and one figure.
