我们使用了50年来的1990万篇论文和210万项专利来证明团队在知识生产中越来越多地支配着独立作者。研究越来越多地在几乎所有领域的团队中进行。团队通常比个人更频繁地发表被引用的研究,这种优势随着时间的推移而增加。团队现在也产生了非常高的影响力研究,即使这种区别曾经是个人作者的领域。这些结果详细说明了科学和工程,社会科学,艺术和人文以及专利,这表明知识创造的过程已经发生了根本性的变化。
We have used 19.9 million papers over 5 decades and 2.1 million patents to demonstrate that teams increasingly dominate solo authors in the production of knowledge. Research is increasingly done in teams across nearly all fields. Teams typically produce more frequently cited research than individuals do, and this advantage has been increasing over time. Teams now also produce the exceptionally high-impact research, even where that distinction was once the domain of solo authors. These results are detailed for sciences and engineering, social sciences, arts and humanities, and patents, suggesting that the process of knowledge creation has fundamentally changed.
