In this study, we examined China's Young Thousand Talents (YTT) program and evaluated its effectiveness in recruiting elite expatriate scientists nurturing the returnee scientists' productivity. We find that YTT are generally of high caliber research but, as a group, fall below top category pre-return further associated with post-return publication gain across journal-quality tiers. However, mainly takes place last-authored publications for high-caliber (albeit not top-caliber) recruits can...

“Genius work,” proposed by A vramescu, refers to scientific articles whose citations grow exponentially in an extended period, for example, over 50 years. Such were defined as “sleeping beauties” v R aan, who quantitatively studied the phenomenon of delayed recognition. However, criteria adopted aan at times are not applicable and may confer recognition prematurely. To revise such deficiencies, this paper proposes two new criteria, which (but limited) exponential citation curves. We searched...

In this article we describe another problem with journal impact factors by showing that one journal's factor is dependent on other journals' publication delays. The proposed theoretical model predicts a monotonically decreasing function of the as delay, condition citation curve monotone increasing during window used in calculation factor; otherwise, has reversed U shape. Our findings based simulations are verified examining three journals information sciences: Journal Informetrics ,...

Humanities and Social Sciences (HSS) increasingly absorb knowledge from Hard Sciences, i.e., Science, Technology, Agriculture Medicine (STAM), as testified by a growing number of citations. However, whether citing more brings citations to HSS remains be investigated. Based on China's articles indexed the Web Science during 1998-2014, this paper estimated two-way fixed effects negative binomial models, with journal year effects. Findings include: (1) An inverse U-shaped curve was observed...

Around the world, universities are playing an increasingly important role in technological development of industries. Many counties emulate policies like Bayh-Dole Act US by giving full property rights government-funded research. Bayh-Dole-like laws have been empirically examined with mixed findings, but few studies considered institutional conditions and investigated causal effect policy developing transition economies China. Based on 2002 reform China, we conduct difference-in-differences...

Does academic engagement accelerate or crowd out the commercialization of university knowledge? Research on this topic seldom considers impact institutional environment, especially when a formal institution for encouraging commercial activities scholars has not yet been established. This study investigates question in context China, which is transition stage. Based survey from Shanghai Maritime University, we demonstrate that positive and greater risk-averse than other risk-seeking scholars....

In this study, we provide a systematic picture of young Chinese overseas scholars by investigating the "Thousand Youth Talents Program", flagship talent program in China's current talent-funding system. Through demographics and return status scholars, attempt to answer key question: how do they perform after their return. We conducted an analysis from five aspects, including personal characteristics, institution statistics, educational background, discipline position statistics. find that...
