TITLE Citation patterns in the finance literature
AUTHOR Chung KH, Cox RAK, Mitchell JB
JOURNAL FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT 30 (3): 99-119 FAL 2001

Document type: Article    Language: English
Cited References: 17      Times Cited: 0

Abstract:
Out of a total of 12,637 individuals whose works were ever cited in the
leading finance journals over the past 25 years, the top 1% (10%) account
for more than one third (three quarters) of the number of citations to
articles published in these journals. In contrast, nearly one half of the
authors have been cited only once. Similarly, the top 1% (10%) of
articles/books received 22% (56%) of the total number of citations. These
results indicate that a few prominent researchers dominate citation in the
leading finance journals. More than half of the 100 most cited works were
published in the Journal of Finance and Journal of Financial Economics.
