Predicted likelihood for journal top contributors of sharing the same affiliation of the academic editor by journal impact factor in the JCR “Medicine, General & Internal” category. Notes: JCR = journal citation report. To estimate coefficients mixed-effect logistic regression models were employed. Models were adjusted for JCR impact factor, open-access policy (fully open access yes/no), editorial board size, journal nationality, and university ranking. Academic journal was included in the model as random intercept.
