- Output from statistical software (e.g., EViews, Stata, SPSS, R) must be re-entered as editable tables rather than pasted as pictures.
- This is essential: image tables cannot be verified for numerical consistency during review, cannot be corrected at copy-editing, and cannot be typeset.
- Output from statistical software (e.g., EViews, Stata, SPSS) has been re-entered as editable tables so that all values can be verified, edited, and typeset. (Figures may be images; data tables may not.).

Artificial intelligence disclosure
- Add or confirm the author-written Artificial intelligence statement; Articlo flags it if author input is still needed.
