Die Entwicklungen der Rechtsinformatik und des Informationsrechts zeigen, dass diese Disziplinen aktuell vor der Herausforderung stehen, eine interdisziplinäre Zusammenarbeit zwischen ihnen und anderen Disziplinen zu etablieren. Unterschiedliche Publikationskulturen erschweren die Erreichung dieses Ziels. Forschungsportale stellen themenspezifische, internetbasierte Verzeichnisse dar, die bereits vorhandene Informationen strukturiert zugänglich machen. Sie können die Beziehungen zwischen den Disziplinen fördern, indem sie bereits erzielte Arbeitsergebnisse disziplinenübergreifend bekannt machen und dadurch dazu beitragen, Synergiepotenziale und mögliche Kooperationspartner zu identifizieren.
We introduce a new way to measure the forecast effort that analysts devote to their earnings forecasts by measuring the analyst's general effort for all covered firms. While the commonly applied effort measure is based on analyst behaviour for one firm, our measure considers analyst behaviour for all covered firms. Our general effort measure captures additional information about analyst effort and thus can identify accurate forecasts. We emphasise the importance of investigating analyst behaviour in a larger context and argue that analysts who generally devote substantial forecast effort are also likely to devote substantial effort to a specific firm, even if this effort might not be captured by a firm-specific measure. Empirical results reveal that analysts who devote higher general forecast effort issue more accurate forecasts. Additional investigations show that analysts' career prospects improve with higher general forecast effort. Our measure improves on existing methods as it has higher explanatory power regarding differences in forecast accuracy than the commonly applied effort measure. Additionally, it can address research questions that cannot be examined with a firm-specific measure. It provides a simple but comprehensive way to identify accurate analysts.
