If you want to produce a high-quality #literature #review, good #search and #sampling are crucial! 🔍 🔎 In this newsletter edition, Michael Gusenbauer provides some #practical #advise for "better sampling" in literature reviews. Among others, the insights and advise are based on a comprehensive #methodological #review of current sampling practices in #management #journals entitled "How to search for literature in systematic reviews and meta-analyses: A comprehensive step-by-step guide" published in Technological Forecasting and Social Change (link: https://lnkd.in/etjDJnpF). In this article, Michael and his co-author: "Evaluated the sampling strategies of 404 management SLRs and MAs, uncovering significant gaps and opportunities for methodological enhancements" and "Developed a comprehensive step-by-step literature sampling guide for SLRs and MAs." Michael Gusenbauer is "an Assistant Professor (PostDoc) at the Institute of Innovation Management at Johannes Kepler Universität Linz.
