Submission Preflight (psychbull-submission)

The last check before pressing submit on APA Editorial Manager. Psychological Bulletin uses masked review, so the most common avoidable failure is an under-masked manuscript — and the second is a synthesis whose MARS/PRISMA reporting is incomplete. Verify volatile specifics on the official APA page before relying on them.

When to trigger

• "Submitting tomorrow" — last pass before upload
• Unsure which files/metadata Editorial Manager expects
• Confirming masking, the abstract cap, and the MARS/PRISMA checklist are satisfied
