popdevr-data-analysis
Use when executing and reporting the analysis for a Population and Development Review (PDR, Wiley / Population Council) manuscript so it survives expert, double-anonymized review — correct rate construction, honest uncertainty, and demographic methods done right, with the development/policy meaning of each quantity made clear. Guides analysis and reporting norms; it does not fabricate results.

# Data Analysis (popdevr-data-analysis)
PDR reviewers are expert demographers *and* development scholars, and the journal expects analyses that
are reproducible and interpretable to a broad readership. Analyze as if a methodologist will re-derive
your rates and an economist will ask what each number means for development — because both may. This
skill covers execution and reporting norms; method choice lives in `popdevr-research-design`.
## When to trigger
- Constructing rates and life tables; building the results section
- Running a decomposition, event-history, APC, or projection analysis
- A reviewer asked for robustness, sensitivity, or alternative specifications
- Making the analysis reproducible and its development meaning explicit before deposit
