From: Early coauthorship with top scientists predicts success in academic careers
Relationship between long-term impact and early career performance. a Number of junior researchers belonging to the top 10% in various categories of early career performance (I denotes institutional prestige, P denotes productivity, and C denotes citations received. All three such quantities are computed based on the first 3 career years). b Probability for authors belonging to each group of being a top scientist in their 20th career year. c Number of citations received per paper published by authors belonging to each group between their 4th and 20th career year. In b and c we report 95% confidence intervals, and we report the \(p\)-values obtained via \(t\)-tests to assess the statistical significance of differences between the sub-group of junior researchers who coauthor work with a top scientist in the first 3 career years and the sub-group of those who do not. \(^*p\ <\ 0.05\); \(^{**}p\ <\ 0.01\); \(^{***}p\ <\ 0.001\)
