2014 Southeastern Archaeology Publication Survey Data

These data are the results of a survey disseminated to the Southeastern Archaeology (SEAC) membership in March 2014. The survey was designed to to better understand authorial behavior (i.e., what factors contribute to decisions about manuscript submission and publication rates among southeastern archaeologists). Our goal was to solicit feedback from SEAC members in all job settings (students, academics, CRM, government, museum, etc.), including those who have never published research or do not publish regularly. We designed a survey with 24 questions (some of which had subsidiary questions), which covered demographic information, conference presentation rates, journal submission and publication rates, resubmission patterns, hypothetical publication strategies, and limiting
factors on writing/producing manuscripts. A results of the survey are published in Bardolph and VanDerwarker (2016) and are available here.
