Matthew effect1968

1968 R. K. Merton in Science 5 Jan. 58/2 This complex pattern of the misallocation of credit for scientific work must quite evidently be described as ‘the Matthew effect’... The Matthew effect consists in the accruing of greater increments of recognition for particular scientific contributions to scientists of considerable repute and the withholding of such recognition from scientists who have not yet made their mark.

1989 Brit. Med. Jrnl. 3 June 1498/2 The Matthew effect may be manifested in small ways even in the doctor's outpatient clinic. The well educated, richer sections of the community understand and can comply with the doctor's instructions more easily. The less well educated patients, unable to follow instructions, end up irritating the health personnel.

1995 Sci. Amer. Aug. 82/3 To reduce the Matthew effect, some journals have begun removing the names and affiliations of authors from papers before sending them to reviewers.

2. Matthew principle n. the principle that those who are already provided for will receive more.

1976 Conc. Oxf. Dict. 625/2 Matthew principle, ‘unto every one that hath shall be given’.

1985 Nature 13 June 529/2 Such industrial funds as there may be will probably be distributed on the Matthew principle (‘to him that hath..’) and will be concentrated among the better off.
