_a"Research methodology is an integral part of the knowledge generation and dissemination processes. A hypothesis has a significant role in research methodology and theory building is a major step in the research process. This book is a comprehensive guide to theory-building for hypothesis specification in academic research in organizational studies. The book takes readers through the process of theory building for specifying hypotheses. It describes the nature, components and structure of theory and the process of theory-building. It does so by using relevant examples that illustrate this process comprehensively. While the main focus of the book is on theory building for hypothesis specification in the area of organizational studies, it could also be relevant to the other areas of the management field such as marketing, strategy and policy, business communication and general management and to various areas in the social and behavioural sciences such as psychology and sociology. This revised edition also includes an afterword with further reflections by the author on the themes discussed in the chapters. This lucidly written book will be a handy resource for research degree program students and researchers, especially in the fields of organizational, social and behavioural sciences including organizational behaviour, human resource management, marketing, strategy and policy, general management, psychology and sociology"-- _cProvided by publisher. |
