Authors of Research
Although not central to the scope of this research, and in
some cases difficult to consolidate as a result of different
variations of an author’s name, we felt that the distribution of
authorship was an interesting by-product of this scan.
Based on the total of 1,978 papers there were a total of
4,220 authors or co-authors. After some attempt to clean up the
data for consistent naming, we arrived at 2,658 unique authors.
As can be seen in Table 3, the vast majority of authors
published only one paper that appeared in our scan with just
under 1% of authors publishing 7 or more papers.
Also compiled is a list of researchers who have authored
8 or more articles in Table 4. John E. Grable and Moshe A.
Milevsky were found to have the most contributions, each with
17, followed by J. Timothy Lynch at 15. For a more extensive
list, please see Appendix E.
