Along with one other current and three 
former psychology faculty members the chair of 
iScience group tops the Stanford study list of 
100’000 cited researchers worldwide.

Researchers around John P.A. Ioannidis at 
Stanford analyzed scientific impact worldwide on 
the basis of data from Scopus. Using multiple 
indicators, their study analyzed data from 1996 
through 2019, covering 7 million scientists in 22 
major fields ranging from chemistry to 
engineering to economics and psychology.

Among the top 100,000 (by c-score) or a 
percentile rank of 2% or above for career-long 
impact, the study lists two current (Jens 
Pruessner and Ulf-Dietrich Reips) and three
