Another 8 percent were neither informed nor interested. The lion's share of respondents, however, that is 46 percent, had to start the survey on 2 May 2012 not yet heard from the Elsevier boycott....On the subject of open access 73 percent of respondents replied that they, in principle, the open-access support idea, but lack of alternatives publish mainly in classical Subskriptionszeitschriften because they often have a better reputation and better ranking feature. Only 6 percent of respondents already publish in open access journals. 6 percent of the scientists / inside the other hand, hold the open access idea is not viable to continue and continue to publish in traditional subscription journals...."
