Entrepreneurship and income inequality (2018, unknown): “This allows us to test how different explanatory variables relate to the within-group inequality, but also the extent to which the same group-specific explanatory variables individually relate to the total aggregate inequality (Cowell & Fiorio, 2011; Fields, 2003).”
Gravity, trade integration, and heterogeneity across industries (2011, methodology): “The contribution of the variance of each component to the total variance of the dependent variable is calculated as = ( ) ( ), where is the partial regression coe¢cient of on the explanatory variable , holding all other explanatory variables constant (Fields, 2003).”
Instrumental leadership: Measurement and extension of transformational–transactional leadership theory (2014, methodology): “Using OLS, we found that the proportion of variance in the r-square due to transformational leadership was initially 42.50% (based on the method of Fields, 2003).”
Bentham or Aristotle in the Development Process? An Empirical Investigation of Capabilities and Subjective Well-Being (2015, methodology): “In a method proposed by Fields (2003), the variation in the dependent variable is decomposed so that the total variance is equal to the sum of the variances explained by each variable.”
