hrm-contribution-framingUse when the one-sentence claim is not sharp for a Human Resource Management (Wiley "HRM") manuscript — articulating the dual contribution the journal demands: a scholarly advance AND a clear implication for workforce policy or HRM practice. Frames the claim; it does not build the theory (hrm-theory
hrm-data-analysisUse when estimation and analysis are the bottleneck for a Human Resource Management (Wiley "HRM") manuscript — fitting HLM/SEM, testing mediation and cross-level moderation, defending aggregation, and qualitative coding rigor. Runs and validates the analysis; it does not design the study (hrm-method
hrm-literature-positioningUse when staking the contribution of a Human Resource Management (Wiley "HRM") manuscript against the right conversation — and against the siblings it is confused with (HRMJ, Personnel Psychology, JAP, AMJ). Positions the paper; it does not sharpen the one-line claim (hrm-contribution-framing).
hrm-methodsUse when the research design is the bottleneck for a Human Resource Management (Wiley "HRM") manuscript — matching multilevel structure, multi-source/multi-wave timing, construct validity, and common-method-bias defenses to the theoretical claim. Designs the study; it does not run the estimation (hr
hrm-rebuttalUse when drafting the revision and response letter after a Human Resource Management (Wiley "HRM") revise-and-resubmit — structuring point-by-point responses to the action editor and reviewers across the journal's developmental, multi-round, double-blind process. Drafts the response after revisions;
hrm-review-processUse when calibrating expectations for the Human Resource Management (Wiley "HRM") editorial process — the EIC fit/relevance screen, double-blind peer review, the developmental R&R culture, and reading a decision letter. Explains the process and how to read decisions; it does not draft the response (
hrm-submissionUse when running the final pre-submission preflight for a Human Resource Management (Wiley "HRM") manuscript via Wiley ScholarOne — double-blind anonymization, the title-page split, APA style, the data-availability statement, ORCID, and the dual-contribution check the EIC screens on. Final checks; i
hrm-tables-figuresUse when exhibits are the bottleneck for a Human Resource Management (Wiley "HRM") manuscript — the descriptives/correlation table, the model build-up, interaction and simple-slope plots, the theoretical-model figure, and (for qualitative work) the data-structure figure. Builds reader-ready exhibits
hrm-theory-developmentUse when the theoretical argument and hypotheses are the bottleneck for a Human Resource Management (Wiley "HRM") manuscript — building an HRM/OB mechanism (AMO, HR-system strength, signaling, social exchange) and deriving testable predictions a priori. Builds the theory; it does not run the analysi
hrm-topic-selectionUse when scoping or stress-testing the research question for a Human Resource Management (Wiley "HRM") manuscript — confirming an HR-system/practice phenomenon with both a scholarly advance and a workforce-policy or HRM-practice payoff. Locks the question; it does not build the theory (hrm-theory-de
hrm-workflowUse when deciding which hrm-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from topic selection through rebuttal for a Human Resource Management (Wiley "HRM") submission. Routes — it does not replace — the specialized skills.
hrm-writing-styleUse when the prose, abstract, or introduction are the bottleneck for a Human Resource Management (Wiley "HRM") manuscript — making the HRM/OB argument land and surfacing the practitioner takeaway in the journal's dual-audience voice. Late-stage polish; it does not fix the theory or design (hrm-theor
