We find stronger social influence in CS than physics, supported by: 3. Greater variance in relative effect sizes for CS — prior works suggest that social influence leads to more randomness in rankings of items in digital platforms due to snowballing effects.

We find stronger social influence in CS than physics, supported by: 2. Increasing treatment effects over time for CS (esp. tweeting & early ArXiv)

Interestingly, we find evidence of stronger social influence in CS than physics, supported by: 1. Higher relative ATE in CS across all interventions
