Butler, Richard J. "How the Internet Changed Social Science Research" Twelfth Annual Martin B. Hickman Outstanding Scholar Lecture in the College of Family, Home and Social Sciences. March 3, 2005. <PowerPoint Presentation> <streaming video version>
	Butler's research analyzed major journals in Anthropology, Economics, Political Science, Psychology, and Sociology, revealing that the Internet has influenced the amount and quality of scholarly articles in the social sciences, has somewaht favored empirical studies, has eased collaborative scholarship and increased jointly-authored articles. However, within these fields, it appears the Internet has deepened the authority of existing major scholars rather than democratizing access and publication.
