# JFQA Rebuttal (jfqa-rebuttal)

Use this skill to turn a **JFQA** revise-and-resubmit into an acceptance. The handling **Managing Editor** and the **double-anonymous** referees must see every concern addressed and the contribution sharpened.

## Structure of the response

- A short **cover letter** to the handling editor: thank them, summarize the main changes, and signal how the revision resolves the central concerns.
- A **point-by-point** response to each referee: quote the comment, give the response, and point to the exact revised text/table/figure (page and exhibit numbers).
- Where you disagree, do so respectfully and with evidence, not assertion.

## What JFQA referees typically push on

- **Identification / endogeneity** — add the design fix or a placebo/falsification, not just more controls (see jfqa-identification-strategy).
- **Inference** — clustering dimension, weak-IV-robust CIs, multiple-testing for anomalies.
