Abstract

Non-alphabetic ordering of author names in co-authored articles may signal that the contribution of effort is not equal for all authors in a given research paper. This study analyzes influences on author name ordering in articles published in three real estate research publications: Real Estate Economics, Journal of Real Estate Finance and Economics, and Journal of Real Estate Research. The results indicate that the probability of non-alphabetic author name ordering varies by journal, article length, number of authors, overall productivity of the authors, and whether at least one author is affiliated with a European institution. These findings may prove useful in the evaluation of authors' professional achievement and influence in the real estate research arena by evaluators who are attempting to interpret the information content (if any) of the ordering of authors' names on real estate research articles.
