HI Rachael,
I’ve seen a number of articles float by my radar lately, although they tend to be less general and more discipline specific. Here’s a few – really haven’t reviewed the data, just sharing in case its helpful.
Wheeler, J., Pham, NM., Arlitsch, K.
et al. Impact factions: assessing the citation impact of different types of open access repositories.
Scientometrics 127, 4977–5003 (2022).
https://doi.org/10.1007/s11192-022-04467-7
Findings indicate that making OA copies of manuscripts available in self-archiving or “green” repositories results in a positive citation effect, although the disciplinary repositories
within the sample significantly outperform the other types of OA services analyzed. Also evident is an increase in citations when a single manuscript is available in multiple OA sources.
Publication cultures and the citation impact of open access (2021)
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/mde.3429
We show that, controlling for confounding variables pertaining to the journals and articles, gold OA increases citations across all articles. However, the individual disciplines feature
starkly different effects: a 18.3% increase in Biology, compared to a decrease by 30.9% in Economics & Management. Also Green OA leads to an increase in citations to academic research. These results are confirmed by a number of robustness checks.

Subject: [SCCKG] Leading or recent papers on OA citations or impact
Hello, colleagues. Do any of you have at your fingertips some references to leading or recent papers confirming positive effects (either via more citations or greater "impact" however that is measured) for
publishing OA?
I assure you: I'm not a lazy person. I'm just an exhausted person who would appreciate it if one of her colleagues happened to have a few of these within arm's reach.
Thanks,
Rachael
