Replication Data for: The dynamics underlying the rise of star performers

DOI

In the article connected to this data set, we propose that star performers' abilities develop according to a multi-dimensional, multiplicative and dynamical process. Based on existing literature, we defined a dynamic network model, including different parameters functioning as enhancers or inhibitors of star performance. The enhancers were multiplicity of productivity, monopolistic productivity, job autonomy, and job complexity, whereas productivity ceiling was an inhibitor. These enhancers and inhibitors were expected to influence the tail-heaviness of the performance distribution. We therefore simulated several samples of performers, thereby including the assumed enhancers and inhibitors in the dynamic networks, and compared their tail-heaviness. Results showed that the dynamic network model resulted in heavier and lighter tail distributions, when including the enhancer- and inhibitor-parameters, respectively. In this data set we included the scripts of the dynamic network model with the different parameter settings. We also included the data of the model simulations, as well as the tests based on the L-moments analysis.
