Here's what caught my eye in research over the past week:
- Núñez et al. (open access) perform a meta-analysis based on 1595 estimates (from 223 studies) of the price semi-elasticity of wine quality ratings, and find a price elasticity of 0.05-0.06, and that quality ratings are more influential in the context of red wines, and less important in the case of sparkling and organic wines
- Tripodi et al. (open access) analyse data from over 12,000 researchers across 15 disciplines in the US, and find that publication rates typically increase sharply during the tenure track and peak just before obtaining tenure, although academics increasingly produce novel, high-risk research after securing tenure, but that research has less impact, with post-tenure research yielding fewer highly cited papers
