By examining 899 Management Information Systems (MIS) research articles published in ten journals between 1975 and 1987, it is shown that while Lotka's inversesquare law relating the number of authors of papers to the number of papers written by each author does not apply, a generalized version of Lotka's law referred to as the inverse-power law fits remarkably well. |
