研究讨论了在实验室研究中使用学生样本的争议,提出应根据理论普适性和研究目的(内部效度或外部效度)来决定是否采用学生样本,并指出在供应链管理研究中,学生样本可用于建立普适性理论或内部效度关系。

Abstract

Researchers often face strong opposition to the use of student samples in laboratory studies. Rather than eschewing this methodology, it is useful to consider theoretical scope (universalistic versus particularistic) and the study's primary purpose (internal versus external validity). When theories are universalistic or the study's purpose is to establish internally valid relationships, laboratory studies with student samples may yield useful insights in supply chain management research.
