Scholarship among Liberal Arts College Economists

The dataset reports publications by economics professors at institutions included by US News and World Report among "national liberal arts colleges" in summer 2020. To be included in the data, individuals must have earned a PhD between 1983 and 2012. Each observation is a faculty member-publication. <br><br>Publications were collected from ECONLIT for all members of the population. For approximately 3/4 of the population, we were also able to obtain a CV. For these faculty member, the dataset also reflects publications listed on a CV but not in ECONLIT.<br><br>Faculty member-level information: institutional ranking on the US News list (bracketed), year of faculty member's PhD completion (bracketed), whether the individual is a micro or macroeconomist, and whether the individual's thesis was a collection of essays.<br><br>Publication-level information: year of the publication, whether indexed in ECONLIT, number of authors, 10-year H index for the journal of publication (when available).<br><br>A detailed description of methodology can be found in:<br><b></b>Bourne, Jenny, Nathan D.
