Defining and operationalizing theory
探讨过去50年组织科学从缺乏理论到过度依赖理论的过程中出现的问题，分析其系统性原因，并提出回归科学原则所需的变革。
Summary Over the last 50 years, the organizational sciences have gone from being largely atheoretical to relying heavily on theory. For various reasons, our approach to theory building has strayed from the principles of scientific acceptability. In this paper, I explore the problems with our approach to theory, the systemic causes of these problems, and the changes that are needed to get us back on track.
