LaTeX Tables
Purpose
This skill creates clean, publication-ready tables in LaTeX for regression results and summary statistics, using standard academic formatting.
When to Use
- Converting model output into LaTeX tables
- Standardizing table style across a paper
- Adding notes, significance stars, and labels
Instructions
Follow these steps to complete the task:
Step 1: Understand the Context
Before generating any code, ask the user:
- What type of table is needed (regression, summary stats, balance)?
- What software produced the results (Stata, R, Python)?
- Which formatting style is required (journal-specific, AEA, etc.)?
Step 2: Generate the Output
Based on the context, generate LaTeX code that:
- Uses
booktabsfor clean horizontal rules - Includes labels and captions for referencing in the paper
- Adds notes for standard errors and significance
- Aligns numeric columns for readability
Step 3: Verify and Explain
After generating output:
- Explain how to compile the table
- Highlight any assumptions in the formatting
- Suggest refinements for journal submission
Example Prompts
- "Create a regression table with three models in LaTeX"
- "Format summary statistics with mean and sd columns"
- "Add significance stars and standard error notes"

Requirements
Software
- LaTeX distribution (TeX Live or MikTeX)
Packages
booktabsthreeparttable(optional for notes)
Best Practices
- Keep tables compact and readable
- Use consistent notation for standard errors and stars
- Provide clear captions and labels
Common Pitfalls
- Overly wide tables that do not fit the page
- Missing notes for standard errors
- Inconsistent labeling across tables

VerifiedTrustedCommunity
Conduct rigorous thematic analysis (TA) of qualitative data following Braun and Clarke's (2006) six-phase framework. Use whenever the user mentions 'thematic analysis', 'TA', 'Braun and Clarke', 'qualitative coding', 'identifying themes', or asks for help analysing interviews, focus groups, open-ended survey responses, or transcripts to identify patterns. Also trigger for questions about inductive vs theoretical coding, semantic vs latent themes, essentialist vs constructionist epistemology, building a thematic map, or writing up a qualitative findings section. Covers all six phases, the four upfront analytic decisions, the 15-point quality checklist, and the five common pitfalls. Produces a Word document write-up and an annotated thematic map. Does NOT cover IPA, grounded theory, discourse analysis, conversation analysis, or narrative analysis — use a different method for those.

Guide users through writing a systematic literature review (SLR) following the PRISMA 2020 framework. Use this skill whenever the user mentions 'systematic review', 'systematic literature review', 'SLR', 'PRISMA', 'PRISMA 2020', 'PRISMA flow diagram', 'PRISMA checklist', or asks for help writing, structuring, or auditing a literature review that follows reporting guidelines. Also trigger when the user asks about inclusion/exclusion criteria for a review, search strategies for databases like Scopus/WoS/PubMed, study selection processes, risk of bias assessment, or narrative synthesis for a review paper. This skill covers the full PRISMA 2020 checklist (27 items), produces a Word document manuscript in strict journal article format, generates an annotated PRISMA flow diagram, and enforces APA 7th Edition referencing throughout. It does NOT cover meta-analysis or statistical pooling. By Chuah Kee Man.
