Normative versus strategic accounts of acknowledgment data. The Dataset.

This repository collects the data used in Baccini A, Petrovich E (2021) "Normative versus strategic accounts of acknowledgment data: the case of the top-five journals of economics".

The file "Database.xlsx" contains two tables. The first reports the relevant metadata of the 1218 research articles considered in the study: the Web of Science identification number(ID), the title (TI), the journal (SO),the acknowledgment text (FX), the authors (AF), and the cited references (CR). The second table reports for each article, identified by its WoS ID, the cleaned list of the acknowledgees it mentions.

The file "Acknowledgment_network.net" contains the acknowledgment network in Pajek format. The list of the vertices is first reported, along with their label and coordinates, followed by the list of arcs with their respective weights.
