Most cited across the field
Ranked by citation count. Because citations accumulate over time, this list naturally leans towards work published a few years ago; for where the field is now, see “recently added”.
lmerTest Package: Tests in Linear Mixed Effects Models
Journal of Statistical Software · 2017 · Q1 · SJR 3.00 · FWCI 1076.75 · 23,710 citations · Open access
The lmerTest R package now provides p-values for F and t tests in linear mixed effects models, addressing a common user need for the lme4 package's lmer function.
Applied Multiple Regression/Correlation Analysis for the Behavioral Sciences
Psychology Press eBooks · 2014 · FWCI 232.26 · 20,892 citations
This classic text offers a non-mathematical, applied approach to multiple regression analysis, focusing on verbal-conceptual exposition and practical data analysis for behavioral sciences.
Fractional Differential Equations
2025 · FWCI 152.67 · 20,501 citations · Open access
Fractional calculus, using integrals and derivatives of fractional order, is gaining traction for modeling phenomena with memory effects, offering superior tools for time-dependent effects compared to traditional integer-order calculus.
emcee: The MCMC Hammer
Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific · 2013 · Q1 · SJR 2.00 · FWCI 219.66 · 11,975 citations · Open access
A new Python implementation of the affine-invariant ensemble sampler for Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) called emcee is introduced, offering improved performance and requiring fewer parameters to tune than traditional methods.
A Mathematical Theory of Evidence
Princeton University Press eBooks · 2020 · FWCI 114.25 · 11,892 citations
This book constructs a new theory of epistemic probability by building on an abstract understanding of how facts are combined, diverging from Dempster's viewpoint by identifying his 'upper and lower probabilities' as fundamental.
Applied Multivariate Statistics for the Social Sciences
2012 · FWCI 147.54 · 10,705 citations
This is a textbook designed for social science students and researchers who need to apply advanced statistical methods without necessarily developing them.
Correlation Coefficients: Appropriate Use and Interpretation
Anesthesia & Analgesia · 2018 · Q1 · SJR 1.00 · FWCI 341.12 · 10,519 citations
This tutorial guides researchers and clinicians on the appropriate use and interpretation of correlation coefficients, specifically Pearson and Spearman, to measure associations between variables.
brms : An R Package for Bayesian Multilevel Models Using Stan
Journal of Statistical Software · 2017 · Q1 · SJR 3.00 · FWCI 319.75 · 9,492 citations · Open access
The brms package in R provides a flexible framework for fitting complex Bayesian multilevel models using the Stan probabilistic programming language.
emmeans: Estimated Marginal Means, aka Least-Squares Means
2017 · 8,335 citations
The 'emmeans' R package provides a unified framework for obtaining estimated marginal means (EMMs) and performing post-hoc analyses for a wide range of linear, generalized linear, and mixed models.
Generalized Additive Models
2017 · FWCI 110.84 · 8,008 citations
This book serves as a leading, introductory reference for Generalized Additive Models (GAMs), offering practical examples and software implementation.
WHO Declares COVID-19 a Pandemic.
PubMed · 2020 · FWCI 207.35 · 7,772 citations
The World Health Organization (WHO) officially declared the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak a global pandemic on March 11, 2020.
Stan : A Probabilistic Programming Language
Journal of Statistical Software · 2017 · Q1 · SJR 3.00 · FWCI 540.93 · 7,425 citations · Open access
Stan is a new probabilistic programming language designed for specifying statistical models and performing Bayesian inference. It offers full Bayesian inference via advanced Markov chain Monte Carlo methods and penalized maximum likelihood estimates through optimization algorithms.
