Scientific Paper Recommender Systems

Dear Mendeley user,

We are iRiS Lab at University of Pittsburgh and are conducting a study to learn how researchers use academic social networking sites. Please find the following link to the questionnaire that asks a variety of questions about your attitudes toward your usages of Mendeley. The average survey duration is 6-8 minutes.

We will only analyze your answers in aggregation, and will not release them to others. This study has been approved by the University of Pittsburgh Institutional Review Board (# PRO12090367). We hope you can participate in our study. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at dahpitt618@live.com.
