Coauthorship and subauthorship patterns in financial economics
2016, International Review of Financial AnalysisCitation Excerpt :In the production of novel research, the role of subauthors is often essential; subauthors are those people whose help is acknowledged by the authors. Subauthorship is the means that indirectly facilitates the diffusion of scientific thought (Glänzel & Schubert, 2004; Lee-Pao, 1992; Heffner, 1981). Subauthors in finance often come from both the academic community and the market.
Connected scholars: Examining the role of social media in research practices of faculty using the UTAUT model
2012, Computers in Human BehaviorCitation Excerpt :For example, by establishing new professional contacts and finding new collaborators to work on various projects, a scholar may increase his or her research output. Pao (1992) found collaboration helps to advance one’s research and increase the productivity of the “highly productive”. Similarly, Stvilia et al. (2011) found that collaborating outside one’s disciplinary boundaries increases team productivity as measured in the number of publications.
Egocentric analysis of co-authorship network structure, position and performance
2012, Information Processing and ManagementCitation Excerpt :Due to the necessity to keep pace with scientific progress not only at the micro level (e.g., level of individual researchers) but also at the macro level (i.e., nationally), most governments are interested in enhancing the level of international collaborations through appropriate policies (Katz & Martin, 1997; van Raan, 2004). Scientific collaboration in addition to advance research, facilitates increasing the visibility and authorship of the highly productive researchers (Pao, 1992). An important result of scientific collaborations is the creation of new scientific knowledge, including new research questions, new research proposals, new theories, and new publications (Stokols, Harvey, Gress, Fuqua, & Phillips, 2005).
New methods for an old debate: Utilizing reader response to investigate the relationship between collaboration and quality in academic journal articles
2012, Library and Information Science ResearchCitation Excerpt :By examining the curriculum vitae of 443 academics and dividing the number of publication credits by the number of authors in each credit, the authors found little relationship. There has also been a positive correlation established between collaboration and funding allocation (Hart, Carstens, LaCroix, & May, 1990; Heffner, 1981; Pao, 1992; Price, 1981). And, as Bahr and Zemon (2000, p. 491) write, collaboration can be its own reward, a mechanism aimed at “alleviating the professional isolation” of many academics.
