Obtaining Reprints—The Effects of Self-Addressed Return Labels

James Hartley Keele University

Abstract

This article compares the response rates for obtaining journal reprints from colleagues when the requests are made using postcards with or without a self-addressed return label. Higher response rates were obtained from the cards with the self-addressed return labels, and more women responded than did men, but these differences were not statistically significant.
