As it happens, my afternoon reading today is this OSTP report "Economic Landscape of Federal Public Access Policy."Page 14 is peppered with references to UC and has a couple links to the OSC site, which feels a little weird, honestly.
But on page 17 they were obviously anticipating Rachael having this question today:"Many studies show that articles published under an open access model would offer greater impact through better readership and generate more citations than subscription-based articles," with three footnotes -55. Langham-Putrow, A., Bakker, C., & Riegelman, A. (2021). Is the open access citation advantage real? A systematic review of the citation of open access and subscription-based articles.

Hi Rachael,
Frontier’s Policy Labs has a long reference list at the bottom of this post. As Allegra said, most are discipline specific papers, but some are more general.
And here is an article that is not listed

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
