↵Notes: Observations are at article level and are recorded “four years after” after the 2012 conference dates. Each column in each panel provides estimates for the 2012 APSA meeting from a separate regression. All regressions include controls for an indicator for whether the paper is in an APSA meeting, conference year dummies, an APSA specific year trend, covariates for the number of authors in the paper, and an indicator for whether any author had a previous paper posted in SSRN. Regressions in Panel A, Columns 1–3 also include controls for the total number of publications by the article authors multiplied by the average journal impact factor. Regressions in Panel A, Columns 4–5 also include controls for the total number of publications by the article authors multiplied by the average journal impact factor and author affiliation dummies. Regressions in Panel B also include controls for author affiliation dummies. Robust standard errors are in brackets. *p < 0.1, **p < 0.05, ***p < 0.01.
