Peer and neighborhood effects: Citation analysis using a spatial autoregressive model and pseudo-spatial data
作者:
Highlights:
• Citation analysis may benefit from the use of spatial autoregressive models.
• Authors, articles, citations and so forth are intrinsically non-spatial items.
• However, they are arranged in pseudo-spaces according to several proximity measures.
• The approach proves useful to delve into the citing behavior of the nearby scholars.
• Further developments are expected in the construction of proximity matrices.
