摘要
This article reports the fifty-nine most-cited scholars in twenty-two introductory criminology textbooks published from 1994-98. Comparisons over time of the citation patterns in criminology textbooks and in leading American criminology journals show considerable changes among the most-cited scholars. These changes are attributed to trends in the coverage of various research specializations in criminology. Volatility in the lists of the most-cited scholars over time justifies further studies of citation patterns in criminology and criminal justice. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
