该研究以RePEc排名的经济学期刊为对象，发现22.6%的期刊收投稿费，且排名越高收费比例越高，通过序贯投稿模型分析得出投稿费用仅在作者调整投稿策略时才会降低系统评审需求。
中文摘要 AI 辅助
经济学期刊通过时间和金钱来调控同行评审的准入。2026年7月对500种RePEc排名的接受主动投稿的经济学期刊的普查发现，113种（22.6%）收取费用，发生率从排名前50的68%降至排名后50的2%。序贯投稿模型显示，等待支付了部分容量出清的价格，使费用成为剩余部分。由于被拒稿件会在排名中下移，仅当作者停止投稿、缩短投稿链或转向要求更少评审报告的期刊时，费用才会降低系统范围内的评审需求。
英文摘要
Economics journals ration access to peer review with time and money. A July 2026 census of 500 RePEc-ranked economics journals accepting unsolicited submissions finds that 113 (22.6 per cent) charge a fee, with incidence falling from 68 per cent in the top 50 to 2 per cent in the bottom 50. A sequential-submission model shows that waiting pays part of the capacity-clearing price, leaving the fee as a residual. Because rejected manuscripts move down the ranking, a fee reduces system-wide referee demand only when authors stop, shorten their submission chains or switch to journals requiring fewer reports.
