| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What are 8 characteristics of Nature of academic scholarship | 1, Academic work 2, Situated 3,Original 4, Critically reflective 5,Logically consistent 6,Methodologically coherent 7,Synthesis 8,Audience |
| What does 1, Academic work 2, Situtated mean in Nature of academic scholarship | 1, Academic work = recognized by others working in a similar area 2, Situated = demonstrate knowledge of wider context |
| What does originality mean in Nature of academic scholarship (3) | 1, takes a different angle 2,adopts a different methodology 3, Provides a different explanation |
| What does 1, Logically consistent 2,Synthesis 3,Audience in Nature of academic scholarship means | 1, Logically consistent = is coherent, not internally contradictory 2,Synthesis=combines theory and data into a cohesive argument 3,Audience = addresses primarily an academic & practitioner audience |
| What does Critically reflective in Nature of academic scholarship means (3) | 1, offers a critical evaluation of other literatures 2, demonstrates critical understanding of its own limitations 3,offers a critical evaluation of the theories generated |
| What does Methodologically coherent mean in Nature of academic scholarship | The methods, data collection, and analysis actually support the research aims and objectives |
| What are 3 aims of research project | 1,Contribution to knowledge 2, Research methodology 3,Impact and relevance |
| What are 4 components of contribution to knowledge | 1, Realism of context = clear identification 2, Theorizing = Pattern recognision and theory development 3, Generalizability 4, Transferability |
| What is difference between generalizability and transferability | Generalizability = Can the findings be extended to the population it represents Transferability = Can findings be used in another context or setting |
| What identifies Research methodology aim (2) | 1, appropriate methodology 2,adherence to quality criteria |
| What are 2 quality criterias in Research methodology | 1, Reliablility = getting repeatly same result 2, Validity = measuring the right thing |
| What are 2 components of Impact and relevance | 1, Implication of findings = what does it mean and why it matter 2,Dissemination of findings = communicating the findings |
| What are 3 equivalences in international research | 1, Construct equivalence = same meaning 2, Sampling equivalence = same type of respondents 3,Measurement equivalence = same measuring method |
| What does Operationalization equivalence mean | can we turn concept into observable/measurable indicatiors in a n equivalent way across cultures |
| What are 3 issues with sampling equivalence | 1, are respondent really compateble 2, similar sampling frames (full list vs internet search) 3, response similarlity (taboo x socially desirable responses) |
| What are 5 issues with Measument equivalence | 1,Metric equivalence = scale measurement working differently 2,Calibration equivalence = different scales 3,Temporal equivalene = differences in times & periods 4,Translation Problems 5,Response styles = less or more extrem answers |
| What is Sampling & Non-Sampling Error | Sampling Error = Error because you observe a sample instead of the whole population Non-Sampling Error = Every other type of research error |
| How to handle Outliers in International Business | it doesnt have to be noise necesarly but an meaningful case that reflects heterogeneity |
| What is Level-Of-Analysis mismatch | Linking correct levels of analysis withing MultiNationalEnterprise hierarchies (employee > individual level, instutational > state level e.g.) |
