Author Postings: a study to assess understanding of, and compliance
with, NIH Public Access Policy Paul Hutchings, Kindle Research Ilana Levin, GfK
This online survey, conducted in January 2006, shows that although most authors are aware of the NIH policy, many authors do not post on PubMed Central because they do not understand the process, nor do they identify clear benefits for posting their work. Of the NIH-funded authors who responded to the survey, 15% have never head of the policy and a further 23% have heard of the policy, but know nothing about it. The survey found awareness of NIH-funded authors is only marginally higher than of all life sciences and medical authors.
