I am working on an ARSoc manuscript and need to construct a comparative who-found-what synthesis matrix and a conceptual diagram mapping mechanism pathways. Which routing step covers this task?

This is the router. It tells you which arsoc- skill to use at the current stage* of an invited review article aimed at the Annual Review of Sociology (ARSoc) — the Annual Reviews (nonprofit) sociology survey series, founded 1975, published as an annual volume with the discipline's highest impact factor (检索于 2026-06；2024 JIF ≈ 9, ranked 1st of 219 in Sociology；以官网为准). ARSoc does not publish original empirical research. It publishes authoritative, accessible review articles that synthesize a sociology subfield — stratification, culture, organizations, networks, race/ethnicity, gender, demography, political and economic sociology — for sociologists across the discipline. So the lifecycle is not "design → identify → estimate → defend"; it is scope a synthesis-worthy subfield → secure the commission → read the whole literature → impose an organizing framework → cover comprehensively and even-handedly → land the ARSoc voice → clear the Annual Reviews process → revise.
Default assumption: unless the user says otherwise, treat the target as ARSoc and the artefact as an invited review, not a primary-research paper. Operational tells that you are at ARSoc and not a sibling: the work reviews other scholars' results rather than reporting its own; unsolicited finished manuscripts are not accepted — the Editorial Committee commissions topics and authors (you can suggest a topic, but you cannot self-submit a finished paper the way you would to ASR or AJS) (检索于 2026-06；以官网为准); there is no identification strategy and no replication package of your own data (you appraise the studies you cover); the contribution is an analytical map of a subfield ending in a research agenda, not a new finding. If the user actually has original data and results, they want a primary-research journal (ASR, AJS, Sociological Science, Demography), not ARSoc — say so.
| Current symptom | Next skill |
|---|---|
| Unsure the subfield is mature/important enough to review for ARSoc | arsoc-topic-selection |
| Need to get the topic in front of the Editorial Committee / accept an invitation | arsoc-proposal-and-commissioning |
| Reading is unsystematic; citation gaps likely | arsoc-literature-synthesis |
| Draft is a list of studies, not an argument about the subfield | arsoc-organizing-framework |
| Coverage vs. selectivity, or fairness across theoretical schools, feels off | arsoc-comprehensiveness-and-balance |
| Need who-found-what tables or the conceptual framework figure | arsoc-tables-figures |
| Prose is dense/jargon-laden; a sociologist outside the subfield can't follow | arsoc-writing-style |
| Documenting the coverage account, or a meta-analysis the review reports | arsoc-transparency-and-reproducibility |
| Working with the Editorial Committee on scope / the annual-volume timeline | arsoc-editor-strategy |
| Ready to deliver the commissioned draft; need a preflight | arsoc-submission |
| Received editor/Committee feedback on the review | arsoc-revision |
