Abstract
This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the research literature in the area of risk and insurance and assesses the total productivity of individual authors, their employers, and the institutions granting authors' terminal degrees. The study sample encompasses all original articles and notes published in 22 leading research journals from 1976 through 1986. The productivity measures impound both quantitative raw measures and peer perceptions of journal quality. The results reveal evidence of dynamic change and broadening participation among contributors to the risk and insurance research literature.
