Publications in high-ranking journals

Refereed essays by IAB researchers in journals that have been rated at least 60 points in the IAB journal rating (year of acceptance: 2021). The IAB developed the rating in order to provide an assessment of all relevant journals in the IAB’s core disciplines (economics, sociology, survey statistics), analogous to the Handelsblatt rating established in economics. The essays are grouped according to the orientation of the journal. They are sorted according to the following criteria: ranking (highest rating first), citation (from A to Z).
