Top 5% Authors, as of May 2005

Number of Distinct Works, Weighted by Simple Impact Factor

Only authors registered with the RePEc Author Service are considered.
Only works listed on RePEc and claimed as theirs by registered authors are counted.
Each work is weighted by its simple impact factor.
Different versions of the same work published in different series or journals are counted only once, the version with the highest impact factor being considered.

This ranking is based on 7044 registered authors.

Same ranking by economic institutions or countries and states. All author rankings. More rankings.
