Abstract
- The author discusses the connection between success of a scientific research paper and the ethnic diversity of collaborating scientists. He observes that greater ethnic diversity among the collaborating scientists creates more attention for the scientific literature publication. Homophily in joint research also creates fewer citations compared to multiple ethnicities. It is noted that diverse perspectives offer benefits or linguistic and cultural differences obstruct communication skills.
