Table 18 Fixed-effects panel regression results. Dependent variable is the log number of citations per paper, and the “specialization” variable is standardized. Standard errors are in parentheses. All control variables described in the main manuscript are included. Based on 828 unique biomedical researchers assigned to the discipline psychology with at least 100 publications
From: Scientific rewards for biomedical specialization are large and persistent
