Systems of Evaluation and the Matthew Effect
研究评价体系（尤其是排名）如何影响马太效应的表达与强度，改变受众对组织获奖资格的认知及奖励分配所依据的优劣标准。
Existing research on the Matthew Effect establishes that this dynamic can alter information flow and the distribution of rewards in ways that lead to cumulating advantages for high status actors. We know little, however, about how systems of evaluation, and especially variations in systems of evaluations, influence the expression and strength of these outcomes. Drawing on analyses of the effects of rankings on organizations, I consider how different evaluation contexts can change both audience perceptions about which organizations are award worthy and the definition of merit on which reward distributions are based.
