T10 Tetlock 2010 T02 Thomas (2002) UC97 Utama and Cready 1997 Y03 Yook 2003 ==Summary Of Usage== There are 28 papers and 33 distinct variables broken into 8 distinct categories: Price/Vol, Analyst, News, CapX, Accounting, External, Transaction, and Target. '''Market Microstructure''' papers and measures are excluded from the summary and tabulation but included in [[Information Asymmetry in Acquisitions Lit Review]] with comments. The average paper uses 2.8 variables from 1.7 categories. The most variables and categories covered by a single paper are 9 and 4 respectively, for Tetlock 2010. Method of payment measures (cash vs. stock) are most popular, and present in half of all papers covered. Other transaction characteristics are rarely used. Acccounting-based measures, particularly Tobin's Q, and Analyst Forecast measures, particularly the Std. Dev. of Forecasts, are the next most popular and occur in approximately 1/3rd of all papers covered. Price/Volumet measures, particularly the idiosyncratic volatility, are the next most popular, occuring in approximately 1/5th of all papers covered.
