本文检验了编委会的地域多样性是否会影响学术论文的多样性。基于对《期刊引文报告》中列出的84种期刊的内容分析，我们发现，根据第一作者的原籍国和数据收集地，不同的编辑委员会更有可能发表更多样化的研究文章。我们的研究结果还表明，（a）影响因子和研究方法的多样性，（B）期刊与学术协会的联系和第一作者原籍国和数据收集国的多样性，以及（c）出版物的创始年份和数据收集国之间存在负相关。最后，作为主持人探讨了该出版物的成立年份。
This article tests whether the geographic diversity of editorial boards affects the diversity of research papers. Based on a content analysis of 84 journals listed in the Journal Citation Report, we show that diverse editorial boards are more likely to publish more diverse research articles, based on the country of origin of the first author and on where the data were collected. Our findings also indicate a negative association between (a) the impact factor and diversity of the research approach, (b) the journal's affiliation to an academic association and diversity in the first author's country of origin and the country of data collection, and (c) the founding year of the publication and the country of data collection. Finally, the founding year of the publication is explored as a moderator.
