摘要
This study examines changes over time in patterns of collaboration for the top 100 research institutions. Compared with a set of less high-impact institutions (ranked 401-500), the top institutions have more rapidly increased the proportion of their research that is collaborative. Moreover, they collaborate increasingly outside of the top 100 institutions, even though they cite increasingly inside of the top 100. This suggests that members of elite institutions are prepared to collaborate widely even if they prefer to rely upon a narrower set of high-quality research.
