Estimates of the Returns to Quality and Coauthorship in Economic Academia
研究经济学教授薪资是否因发表论文质量不同而有差异，以及合著论文的回报是否仅为单著的1/n。
Salaries of academic economists are studied to determine if individuals receive differential returns to publishing articles of varying quality and to coauthored versus single-authored articles. Estimates based on detailed data and a flexible nonlinear least-squares procedure indicate that substantial returns to quality exist and that an individual's return from a coauthored paper with n authors is approximately 1/n times that of a single-authored paper.
