Citations in the corpus

• Unrewarded careers in the creative class: The strange case of bohemian graduates (2010, background): “(2007), Rauch and Negrey (2006) and Donegan et al. (2008), also show that the creative class measure of human capital performs very similarly to the traditional educational attainment measure (in fact sometimes better, but sometimes even worse).”
• Rethinking Human Capital, Creativity and Urban Growth (2008, background): “In statistical terms, most analysts conclude that creative class variables perform only marginally differently—sometimes slightly better, sometimes slightly worse—from the standard measures (Wojan, Lambert and McGranahan, 2007; Rauch and Negrey, 2006; Donegan et al., 2008).”
