Project Description
Summary:
View help for Summary
We examine trends in author representation, research topics,
and impact of citations to articles in the American Economic Review and
what was formerly its Papers & Proceedings (P&P). Over what we
refer to as the P&P expansion period (2008-2017), we see a significant
shift toward greater diversity of P&P authors with respect to gender and
institutions, and the range of topics covered. Importantly, the rise in
inclusivity during this time period occurred without any loss of impact, with
P&P article citations actually rising relative to regular-issue articles.
Thus, our analysis suggests there is no trade-off between impact and inclusion.
