Abstract
Evaluation studies of PSPB, to assess the reactions of readers and authors and to inform deci sion making regarding publication policy, were man dated when the Bulletin was designed. Data were col lected in surveys of readers and authors, and gathered from the Editor's files. Most readers (83%) recom mended continued publication, and almost all authors of accepted manuscripts (98%) viewed the Bulletin as a useful publication outlet. A majority of authors of rejected manuscripts (65%) intended to submit additional manuscripts. Most features of PSPB re ceived strong endorsement from survey respondents and the results of the evaluation studies imply continued publication.Keywords
