What it does
Jebo Theory Model is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills. Use when a Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization (JEBO) manuscript needs a behavioral or bounded-rationality model to organize, predict, or interpret its evidence. Right-sizes theory in a pluralist journal — from a sharp testable prediction to a standalone behavioral model or agent-based simulation; it does not design the identification or build the package.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: Journal-specific Claude Code/Codex skill packs covering mainstream journals — AER, QJE, Nature, Cell, 管理世界, 经济研究 & 200+ more — your fast track to getting published. ｜ 覆盖主流期刊的… The licence is MIT.

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 932eb23. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Jebo Theory Model loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 96 tokens; SKILL.md has 641 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- jebo-theory-model
- description
- Use when a Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization (JEBO) manuscript needs a behavioral or bounded-rationality model to organize, predict, or interpret its evidence. Right-sizes theory in a pluralist journal — from a sharp testable prediction to a standalone behavioral model or agent-based simulation; it does not design the identification or build the package.
Behavioral Theory & Model (jebo-theory-model)
When to trigger
- A referee asks "what model rationalizes this behavior / what is the mechanism?"
- The treatment effect is credible but its behavioral meaning is ambiguous
- You have a behavioral model but it generates no prediction the experiment could falsify
- You are building an agent-based or evolutionary model and must justify its discipline
- You are tempted to lead with a heavy structural model and need to right-size it for JEBO
The JEBO theory dial
JEBO is pluralist: theory can be the lead (a behavioral/bounded-rationality model is itself the contribution) or the support (a model that yields the prediction an experiment tests, or interprets a reduced-form estimate). What JEBO does not reward is theory that adds notation without a testable behavioral prediction or a sharper interpretation. Pick the lightest tool that does the job — and whatever the weight, the model's behavioral primitives (preferences, beliefs, heuristics, learning rules) must be explicit and defensible, not assumed for convenience.
| Theory's job | Right amount of model | Where it goes |
|---|---|---|
| Name the mechanism / give intuition | a few equations or a conceptual frame | short section before results |
| Generate a sharp prediction to test | a small behavioral model with comparative statics | framework section; tested in results |
| Map a reduced-form estimate to a behavioral parameter | sufficient-statistic / structural-behavioral link | inline derivation + appendix |
| Lead the paper (theory is the contribution) | a full behavioral model, with at least one testable implication | main body, with a discipline section |
| Explore emergent organizational/market behavior | agent-based / evolutionary model | main body + robustness sweeps |
Making the prediction sharp (the usual JEBO sweet spot)
A behavioral model earns its place when it predicts something a rational benchmark does not — a sign, an ordering of treatments, a moderator. State the comparative static before the results ("the model predicts cooperation rises with γ only when monitoring is salient") so the test is a real test, not a post-hoc fit. A model whose every parameterization confirms the data predicts nothing.
Behavioral primitives, not free parameters
Whether a social-preference utility (e.g., inequity aversion, reciprocity, reference dependence) or a learning rule (reinforcement, EWA, level-k / cognitive hierarchy), tie each behavioral primitive to something the design measures or the literature constrains. A "behavioral" parameter chosen only to fit the data is decoration.

Agent-based / evolutionary discipline
Simulation is welcome at JEBO, but referees demand discipline: justify behavioral rules from evidence, calibrate to known moments, report parameter sweeps (handled in jebo-robustness), and distinguish robust emergent regularities from knife-edge artifacts.
Checklist
- Theory's job named (mechanism / prediction / mapping / lead / emergent behavior)
- Lightest adequate tool chosen; weight matches the journal slot
- At least one comparative static / sign prediction stated before it is tested
- Behavioral primitives (preferences/beliefs/learning rules) tied to data or literature, not free
- If structural-behavioral: each parameter linked to a data feature; untargeted-moment check
- If agent-based: rules justified, calibration stated, sweeps planned
- Predictions/magnitudes carry scope and uncertainty
Anti-patterns
- A "model" section that adds notation but yields no testable behavioral prediction
- Comparative statics derived after seeing the results (HARKing the theory)
- A social-preference or learning parameter chosen purely to fit, with no independent discipline
- Leading a thin empirical paper with a heavy structural model (reads as a different journal)
- An agent-based model whose headline result is a knife-edge of untested tuning choices
- Calling a reduced-form effect "loss aversion" with no model linking the estimate to that primitive
Worked vignette (illustrative)
A within-firm field study finds output falls after a pay-cut more than it rises after an equal raise. The raw asymmetry is suggestive but ambiguous. The JEBO move: a reference-dependent effort model with the prior wage as the reference point predicts exactly this asymmetry and a kink at the reference wage. The paper states the kink prediction before testing, then shows effort drops ~2× as steeply below the reference as it rises above (illustrative) — turning a correlation into a mechanism-level result a reference-free model cannot produce.
