jru-robustness

Use when a Journal of Risk and Uncertainty (JRU) result may be sensitive to specification, incentive frame, sample, or inference. Organizes robustness by the threat to the risk/uncertainty parameter; it does not invent evidence or citations.

# Robustness Strategy (jru-robustness)

## When to trigger

- The headline risk/ambiguity parameter shifts under a different functional form (CRRA vs. CARA vs. expo-power) and you are unsure which to report
- An experimental result might be an artifact of stakes, order, the random-incentive system, or a particular elicitation device
- A referee will ask whether the finding survives EU vs. non-EU specifications, or pooled vs. heterogeneous-type estimation
- Multiple hypotheses are tested across many lottery menus or treatments and no correction is in place

## Organize robustness by threat, not by appendix

A JRU robustness section earns its place when every check is tied to a **specific threat to the parameter's interpretation**. List the threats first, then the check that answers each.
