X Abstract

This article focuses on the process of scientific and scholarly communication. Data on open access publica- tions on the Internet not only provides a supplement to the traditional citation indexes but also enables analysis of themicroprocesses and daily practices that constitute scientific communication.This article focuses on a stage in the life cycle of scientific and scholarly information that precedes the publication of formal research articles in the scientific and scholarly literature. Binomial logistic regression models are used to analyse precise mecha- nisms at work in the transformation of a working paper (WP) into a journal article (JA) in the field of economics. The study unveils a fine-grained process of adapting WPs to their new context as JAs by deleting and adding literature references,which perhaps can be best captured by the term sculpting.
