Aug 19, 2015 at 17:09 comment added Lightness Races in Orbit @eykanal: Eh, what people do is completely relevant all the time. That is the manifestation of ideas. I cannot judge what the OP's ideas are without telepathy. Anyway, I don't even remember what the sentence was now since you have censored it! So this is a generic response
Aug 19, 2015 at 17:07 comment added Franck Dernoncourt @LightnessRacesinOrbit This is not an assumption but one possible answer to the question. No intent to take sides here, just looking for facts.
Aug 19, 2015 at 16:51 comment added eykanal @Light - I removed your second sentence. Your point is well taken, and (for what it's worth) I completely agree, but please discuss ideas, not individual people.
Aug 19, 2015 at 14:03 comment added Lightness Races in Orbit This question suffers from a faulty base assumption that non-paywall is inherently, globally, unarguably, categorically "better" and to be desired by all by default.
Aug 19, 2015 at 12:10 comment added Raphael Are you (also) asking, "... and not provide a preprint as free download?"
Aug 19, 2015 at 9:27 comment added gerrit See also: If tenured staff are virtually unsackable, why is the drive to find funding so strong?.
Aug 19, 2015 at 8:45 comment added DetlevCM 1) "publish or perish" - they need publications for grants. 2) there is no money to publish in open access journals (some public grants/funding bodies apparently now start to make allowances for it)

Aug 18, 2015 at 19:40 comment added Franck Dernoncourt @Andrew This is not an assumption but one possible answer to the question (which I'd upvote at it's a good one). No intent to take sides here, just looking for facts.
Aug 18, 2015 at 19:31 comment added Andrew is gone there's a lot more than that. It's implicitly assuming that most people think of OA/non-OA as a primary factor in their publication choices - some do, certainly, and credit to them... but most simply don't prioritise it. A survey released last week finds most authors weight it substantially less than most other factors.
Aug 18, 2015 at 19:24 comment added Franck Dernoncourt @Andrew The only assumption I see is that some tenure professors sometime publish in pay-walled venues. I'd be glad to stand corrected.
Aug 18, 2015 at 19:22 comment added Andrew is gone "...and when did you stop beating your wife?" There's a lot of hidden assumptions in this question that really need to be discussed before it can be answered effectively.
