Sometimes positive effects can be observed in one discipline and negative effects in another. The following overview summarizes measurable effects from studies for economics, business administration, and other disciplines. Open access Usage There is evidence that Open Access publications are used more extensively and by a more diverse audience than restricted literature, with significantly higher download numbers and page views (Meta study on various disciplines).
