The Matthew effect in science funding.
TL;DR: The results show that winners just above the funding threshold accumulate more than twice as much funding during the subsequent eight years as nonwinners with near-identical review scores that fall just below the threshold, suggesting that early funding itself is an asset for acquiring later funding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamics of Networks If Everyone Strives for Structural Holes
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors characterize the networks that emerge when everyone strives for structural holes, and they find that the predominant stable networks distribute benefits evenly, confirming that no one is able to maintain a structural advantage in the long run.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Findings suggest a lesser degree of vulnerability of reward systems to incidental or fabricated advantages and a more modest role for cumulative advantage in the explanation of social inequality than previously thought.
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
