Sheehan, Kim
Journal of Computer-Mediated Communication, v6 n2 Jan 2001
Analyzes response rates to e-mail surveys undertaken since 1986. Examines five influences on response rates: year undertaken, number of survey questions, number of pre-notification contacts, number of follow-up contacts, and survey topic salience. Notes response rates to e-mail surveys have significantly decreased. Suggests year the survey was undertaken and number of follow-up contacts had the most influence on response rates. (RS)
