MGMT654

041074

The primary purpose of this seminar is to prepare doctoral students to critique and conduct research in the organizational sciences. Specifically, this course is designed for doctoral students who intend to evaluate and conduct empirical, field methods-related research for publication in scholarly journals. Consistent with the above statements, the emphasis of this course will be on using and extending the knowledge and skills covered in MGMT 653: (a) the logic of research design, (b) the advantages and limitations of different types of designs and research methods, and (c) issues that researchers encounter when using these methods. Generally speaking, this course covers later stages in the research process, beginning with assessing the validity of variables, and then testing potential moderating, mediating, and multi-level effects. Although the discussion of various analytical procedures is included in this course, the focus of the seminar will be on methodological issues, as opposed to analytical or statistical issues.
