Abstract | "Social media, especially Twitter, plays an increasingly important role among researchers in showcasing and promoting their research. Does Twitter affect academic citations? Making use of Twitter activity about columns published on VoxEU, a renowned online platform for economists, we develop an instrumental variable strategy to show that Twitter activity about a research paper has a causal effect on the number of citations that this paper will receive. We find that the existence of at least one tweet, as opposed to none, increases citations by . Doubling overall Twitter engagement boosts citations by up to 16%." The study refers to the period 2008-2017. (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku, © 2023 Elsevier). |
