  1. How to write an SSCI Journal Paper(Publishing) E H Sibley, ScD George Mason University Fairfax, VA. USA esibley@gmu.edu

  2. What types of Material? • Current state of the industry/technology • Survey of current work • Case studies • One or more? • Empirical and Experimental studies • Surveys/Statistics, etc. • Theoretical Foundations/Theories

  3. Survey of State of the Art • Major review of the literature • Arguments about cause (technology and methods) and effects (improved efficiency or effectiveness) • Attempts to predict trends in IT and IS

  4. Case Studies Decide to deal with a single case: • Due to limited time (Independent analysis) • Follow trends (Longitudinal Analyses) Decide to have multiple cases • In the same sector of the economy (Comparative analyses) • Across different industries

  5. Empirical Studies Start with assumptions/hypotheses Often based on prior work/literature Develop a model Design of Questionnaire/Experiments Develop Methods/statistical testing, etc. Results may disprove the hypotheses

  6. Problems in Making Surveys What is the population? What are the major variables? Develop or construct a model, then: • How do you validate the questionnaire? • How do you prove the measures? • Can you survey enough of the population to make results significant?

  7. The Structure of Most Articles Abstract • Introduction and statement of intent (with research questions simply stated) • Discussion of prior work/brief literature review • Theory or Hypotheses being tested • Design of Experiment/Questionnaire • Research Method/statistical testing, etc. • Analysis of Results and discussion • Limitations and Conclusions (including recommendations and implications) • References • Appendix
