R&R Rebuttal (psci-rebuttal)

A Psychological Science R&R typically asks for more robustness, fuller disclosure, or stronger transparency — and all of it has to fit back inside a very tight word format. The response letter must convert every reviewer and reassure the editor on credibility, while keeping the paper within budget.

When to trigger

• An R&R arrived and you are planning the revision + response letter
• Reviewers requested added analyses, robustness, disclosure, or open-science changes
• A requested analysis would change the claim
• Writing the cover note to the editor
