The deans of all 440 AACSB accredited colleges of business were surveyed regarding their views on undeserved authorship in business journals and the impact of such authorships upon the faculty reward system. One hundred and twenty-five deans responded to a questionnaire on the topic. Eighty percent of the respondents indicated that they were aware of a faculty member "carrying" a co-author who had done very little or no work on a business journal publication. Fifty percent of the deans indicated that the practice is "rare", while forty-one percent felt that the practice is "somewhat extensive" and 5% felt that the practice is "extensive" or "very extensive".
