Abstract

This chapter examines the most-cited scholars in 2006–2010 in three major American criminology journals (Criminology—CRIM, Journal of Quantitative Criminology—JQC, Journal of Research in Crime and Delinquency—JRCD) and three major American criminal justice journals (Justice Quarterly—JQ, Journal of Criminal Justice—JCJ, Criminal Justice and Behavior—CJB). The most-cited works of the most-cited scholars are also listed. Comparisons are made with four earlier time periods (1986–1990, 1991–1995, 1996–2000, and 2001–2005) so that changes in the influence and prestige of scholars during the past 25 years can be documented. As we listed the most-cited scholars in CRIM in Chap. 3, we begin with JQC.
