Research productivity of graduates in management: effects of academic origin and academic affiliation

Article Abstract:

An empirical study was conducted on a final sample of 270 doctoral graduates to explore the relationship between academic origin, academic affiliation and research productivity within the management discipline. Results overall indicated that productive scholars were not heavily concentrated among a few universities in terms of academic origin. The status of academic affiliation exhibited a relatively strong association with research productivity in terms of both publication counts and citation counts.

Using electronic mail for data collection in organizational research

Article Abstract:

Electronic mail (EMS) was found to offer certain advantages over the two traditional methods of organizational data collection: oral interviews and questionnaires. With an overall response rate of 73 percent, an accuracy rating equal to written questionnaires, and a cost lower than interviewing, EMS is demonstrated to be an effective alternative to the other two research methods. EMS data collection procedures for use with most research designs are also described.
