A Q.
Q: Does a researcher exhibit different styles in writing single-authored vs multi-authored papers?
Assuming one can collect all the publications and publication data, holding down the different variables and doing any principled analysis on extremely sparse signals one faces will be a challenge, so we may just have to go with anecdotal support! :)

Don't forget the collinear variables--i.e.
"multi-authored" papers that are actually single-authored. Now that is not a non-sparse signal.
Hi Meena,
True! I hoped there would be some signal in nominally multi-authored papers that are in fact single-authored (or at least n-authored paper that is in fact < n-authored).
