jpam-tables-figures

Use when building tables and figures for a Journal of Policy Analysis and Management (JPAM) manuscript — self-contained, decision-legible exhibits that show the policy effect, its uncertainty, the design's validity, and cost-benefit / distributional results. Designs exhibits; it does not run the estimation.

# Tables & Figures (jpam-tables-figures)

JPAM exhibits serve a mixed audience — economists, political scientists, public-management scholars, and
practitioners — so they must be **self-contained and decision-legible**: a policymaker should grasp the
main result, its uncertainty, and who it affects without reading the methods section. Lead with the
exhibit that shows the policy effect and its credibility, not a wall of coefficients.

## When to trigger

- Designing the main results table/figure and the design-validity exhibits
- A reviewer found tables unreadable, or the key result hard to locate
- Presenting cost-benefit or distributional results visually
- Preparing exhibits for the (double-blind) submission
