This is the complete list of names referred to in Haggbloom, et al. (2002). There is a correction involving the citation frequency for Hans Eysenck. The corrected citation frequency is 130; the corrected rank is 16th, i.e., following Gordon Bower and before Lawrence Kohlberg. Note that the original rank of 54.5 assigned to Eysenck in this table differed from the rank of 30 reported in the article, and both values were wrong. Recalculation of the composite score (mean z-score across all four variables) for Eysenck based on the corrected citation frequency did not alter his position in the most eminent list. See rank-ordered list for corrected ranks.
