Dari-Mattiacci, Giuseppe; Parisi, Francesco - In: Public Choice 159 (2014) 1, pp. 99-104

In the traditional formulation of rent-seeking games, increasing returns to effort are characterized by an exponent r1. However, when the value of the rent is normalized to 1, the players’ effort levels A and B will typically be less than 1. Thus, when A1 and r1, the value of A <Superscript> r </Superscript> decreases...</superscript>

How to improve the prediction based on citation impact percentiles for years shortly after the publication date?

Bornmann, Lutz; Leydesdorff, Loet; Wang, Jian - In: Journal of Informetrics 8 (2014) 1, pp. 175-180

The findings of Bornmann, Leydesdorff, and Wang (2013b) revealed that the consideration of journal impact improves the prediction of long-term citation impact. This paper further explores the possibility of improving citation impact measurements on the base of a short citation window by the...
