Elementary Teachers’ Use of Graphical Representations in Science Teaching (2011, background): “Although some research suggests that overall response rates for e-mail surveys are somewhat lower than paper and pencil surveys (Anderson and Gansneder 1995), some studies have had response rates as high as 70% ( Yun and Trumbo 2000 ).”
Participation rates in epidemiologic studies. (2007, background): “For example, some mixed mode studies give respondents the option of completing data collection in one of multiple ways, usually via mail or via the Internet (115, 117).”
Taking a “Peak” at Leisure Travelers’ Positive Emotions (2012, methodology): “…solicitations, we recruited 25% of all individuals who participated in the leisure travel experiences, a higher percentage than similar studies (e.g., Fredrickson et al., 2008; Strauss-Blasche, et al., 2000) and not unusual for a mixed-mode survey with an e-mail component (Yun & Trumbo, 2006).”
Electronic Survey Methodology: A Case Study in Reaching Hard-to-Involve Internet Users (2003, background): “Electronic surveys are increasingly common (Lazar & Preece, 1999) and results from electronic surveys can be the same as postal survey content results, with the advantages of speedy distribution and response cycles (Slaughter, Norman, & Schneiderman, 1995; Taylor, 2000; Yun & Trumbo, 2000).”

Response Rates and Responsiveness for Surveys, Standards, and the Journal (2008, background): “Email response rates may only approximate 25% to 30% without follow-up e-mail and reinforcements.(6) E-mail surveys incorporating multimode approaches may yield response rates as high as 70%.”
Comparing Mail and Web-Based Survey Distribution Methods: Results of Surveys to Leisure Travel Retailers (2005, background): “…differences to variables under study between Web and mail surveys (Basi 1999; Cobanoglu, Warde, and Moreo 2001; Couper 2000; Mertler and Earley 2003; Porter and Umbach 2001; Sax, Gilmartin, and Bryant 2003; Schillewaert, Langerak, and Duhamel 1998; Stanton 1998; Taylor 2000; Yun and Trumbo 2000).”
