Herman Aguinis, a former editor-in-chief of the journal Organizational Research Methods, sets out the whole research process in 16 chapters, from choosing a topic and framing questions to collecting and analysing data and reporting the results. Each stage comes with best-practice recommendations drawn from the methodology literature.
Checklists and summary tables make the guidance easy to apply to a thesis, a dissertation or a journal article. The book suits postgraduate students and researchers in management, the social sciences and related fields who want their work to be rigorous, credible and useful.
