Chapter Chapter 7 in Methods of Economic Research, 2018, pp 93-107 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter portrays data description as an integral prelude to economic modeling, a key aspect of shaping a model. It lays out three principles that exemplify effective description and presents three techniques for creating graphs and tables that adhere to these principles. These ideas come to life in applications to ultramarathoning, beer prices, and the incentive effects of letter grades.
