  11. \maketitle
  12.  
  13. \section{Introduction}
  14.  
  15. First 3 paragraphs: what's the question? What is the state of the literature? What do you add?
  16.  
  17. Next 5 paragraphs: give a summary of your results, still at a high level, and connect it to the literature. Dedicated literature review sections are falling out of favor; integrate the lit review into the introduction.
  18.  
  19. No mathematics in the introduction. Ever.
  20.  
  21. Three pages is a good upper limit for the introduction.
  22.  
  23. Dedola, Karadi, and Lombardo (2013 JME) is an example of a very good introduction.
  24.  
  25. \section{Model}
  26.  
  27. Five to ten paragraphs. Be brief about model elements that are ``standard.'' Go into detail on model elements that are new.
  28.  
  29. If it's a DSGE paper, carefully state the definition of equilibrium and the solution method you use.
  30.  
  31. Demonstrating LaTeX's math abilities, we have the usual 3-equation New Keynesian model:
  32. \begin{align}
  33. x_t &= E_t x_{t+1} - \sigma(i_t - E_t\pi_{t+1} - r_t^n) \\
  34. \pi_t &= \beta E_t \pi_{t+1} + \kappa x_t \\
  35. i_t &= \delta_{\pi} \pi_t
  36. \end{align}
  37. which hold for $t=1,2,3,\dots$.
  38.  
  39. \section{Data}
  40.  
  41. Do not waste time describing well-known datasets. Do describe any new or interesting data. If your paper is motivated by new stylized facts, this is the place to present them. If you're calibrating a model, tell me here what moments you're matching. If you're estimating, tell me everything I need to know about the estimation technique.
  42.  
  43. If it's an applied micro paper, convince me that your instrument is, indeed, valid.
  44.  
  45. \section{Results}
  46.  
  47. Fifteen or so paragraphs. Figure out your three main results and spend five paragraphs on each. Support your claims with tables and figures. Tell me the economic intuition.
  48.  
  49. \subsection{Result 1}
  50.  
  51. \subsection{Result 2}
  52.  
  53. \subsection{Result 3}
  54.  
  55. \section{Conclusions}
  56.  
  57. Short and sweet.
