Does anyone know of a good research paper that looks specifically at this kind of impact of wikis?
Check: WP:ACST for a list of articles with abstracts. There should be a few suitable.
Also, for those who don't know, the Wiki Research Database is the most comprehensive collection around: http://bibliography.wikimedia.de/
There's also more studies linked here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research
