According to the information in the question, we know that non-Jewish authors are more likely to cite non-Jewish names than Jewish authors. The question asks us about the "odds" of this happening, so we can assume that there is some statistical analysis involved. The difference in odds can be expressed as an odds ratio, which is the odds of non-Jewish authors citing non-Jewish names divided by the odds of Jewish authors doing the same thing. A 40% higher odds ratio means that non-Jewish authors are 1.4 times more likely to cite non-Jewish names than Jewish authors. Therefore, the correct answer is C) 40%.
