《应用计量经济学杂志》是一本国际期刊，每两个月出版一期，另加一期（共7期）。它的目的是出版高质量的文章，涉及现有的和新的计量技术在经济学和相关学科的各种问题上的应用，涵盖测量、估计、测试、预测和政策分析的主题。重点是认真、严谨地应用计量经济学技术，并对结果进行适当的解释。强调文章的经济内容。《华尔街日报》的一个特点是它强调了其他研究者对结果的可复制性。为了实现这一目标，作者需要提供一套完整的数据，以及通过易于访问的媒介（最好是以机器可读的形式）使用的任何专门的计算机程序。重点介绍了微机在应用研究和数据传输中的应用。《华尔街日报》还特地刊登了一些短篇论文，这些短篇论文对先前发表的论文进行了重新评估。《应用计量经济学杂志》的目的是为经济学中的创新、定量研究提供一个出口，这种研究跨越了专业领域，涉及可转移的技术，并且很容易被其他研究者复制。积极鼓励采用适用于各种经济问题的统计方法的捐款。该杂志还旨在发表评论和调查文章，使理论和应用计量经济学领域的最新发展更容易被应用经济学家普遍接受。
The Journal of Applied Econometrics is an international journal published bi-monthly, plus 1 additional issue (total 7 issues). It aims to publish articles of high quality dealing with the application of existing as well as new econometric techniques to a wide variety of problems in economics and related subjects, covering topics in measurement, estimation, testing, forecasting, and policy analysis. The emphasis is on the careful and rigorous application of econometric techniques and the appropriate interpretation of the results. The economic content of the articles is stressed.A special feature of the Journal is its emphasis on the replicability of results by other researchers. To achieve this aim, authors are expected to make available a complete set of the data used as well as any specialised computer programs employed through a readily accessible medium, preferably in a machine-readable form. The use of microcomputers in applied research and transferability of data is emphasised. The Journal also features occasional sections of short papers re-evaluating previously published papers.The intention of the Journal of Applied Econometrics is to provide an outlet for innovative, quantitative research in economics which cuts across areas of specialisation, involves transferable techniques, and is easily replicable by other researchers. Contributions that introduce statistical methods that are applicable to a variety of economic problems are actively encouraged. The Journal also aims to publish review and survey articles that make recent developments in the field of theoretical and applied econometrics more readily accessible to applied economists in general.
