[RsyPost] For their study, the researchers examined 8,661 scientific articles published in three multidisciplinary journals (Nature, Science, and Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences), three economic journals (The Quarterly Journal of Economics, Journal of Political Economy, and Econometrica), three consumer research journals (Journal of Consumer Research, Journal of Retailing and Consumer Services, and Journal of Consumer Psychology), and three neuroscience journals (Nature Reviews Neuroscience, Nature Neuroscience, and Neuron).

The articles were published between September 2015 and February 2016. About half of them had been downloaded from Sci-Hub, while the other half had never been downloaded from the website.
