Judgment Calls in Research

by Joseph E. McGrath, Richard A. Kulka, Joanne Martin

Book Overview

A term borrowed from sport, a judgment call is a decision that must be made without a fixed, objective rule. The authors highlight the discrepancies between what a researcher should do by textbook standards, and what researchers actually do. They offer ideas for dealing with difficult decisions about how to proceed when undertaking organizational research.
