Over the years, information systems (IS) researchers have developed guidelines for research methods. IS researchers have used the guidelines to direct the writ-ing of manuscripts in their research work. Reviewers and editors also use the guidelines when evaluating submitted manuscripts. Researchers can see what a good quality manuscript is like, and reviewers and editors can relate manu-scripts to guidelines. However, guidelines do not accurately measure good-ness. Rather, the guidelines should be understood pedagogically, for example as checklists. Despite the fact that guidelines are often used to measure the quality of research, the guidelines themselves have rarely been critically re-viewed.
As a step in this direction, several methodological guidelines for IS re-search are reviewed in this thesis. Some guidelines require minor modifications based on our analysis. Some other guidelines need major updates, and one re-quires a total change. This thesis also presents and defends a classification that aims to provide a taxonomy of IS research methods. It can be utilized in select-ing an appropriate method for research.

Reconsidering the Role of Research Method Guidelines for Qualitative, Mixed-methods, and Design Science Research
Holtkamp, Philipp; Soliman, Wael; Siponen, Mikko (University of Hawai'i at Manoa, 2019)Guidelines for different qualitative research genres have been proposed in information systems (IS). As these guidelines are outlined for conducting and evaluating good research, studies may be denied publication ... -
On research work in information systems: Guidelines, recommendations and examples
Järvinen, Pertti (2021)The most positive aspect of science is that the participants (researchers, reviewers and editors) control and evaluate their work themselves. Therefore they must be supported in one way or another. Fortunately, guidelines ... -
Methodology Development in Adult Learning Research : Combining Physiological Reactions and Learning Experiences in Simulation-Based Learning Environments
Silvennoinen, Minna; Vesisenaho, Mikko; Manu, Mari; Kullberg, Tiina; Malinen, Anita; Parviainen, Tiina (IATED, 2020)We aim to clarify whether physiological measurement technologies can be used in combination with traditional educational research methods to investigate learning experience. We developed an interdisciplinary research design ...
