The Trend toward Multiple Authorship in Business Journals
English, Donald E.; Manton, Edgar J.
Journal of Education for Business, v82 n3 p164-168 Jan-Feb 2007
Universities and colleges of business have experienced evolving missions and accreditation pressures that have increased the emphasis on the scholarly endeavors of the faculty. In this article, the authors reviewed 6 major representative business journals for the periods 1970-1972, 1980-1982, 1990-1992, and 2000-2002. During this period, all journals experienced (a) an increase in the average number of authors per article, (b) a dramatic decrease in the percentage of articles authored by a single author, and (c) a significant increase in the percentage of 2 or 3 coauthored articles. (Contains 3 tables.)
