Musing about Interdisciplinary Research: Is Interdisciplinary Research Amusing or Bemusing?
基于作者在管理学领域发表跨学科研究的亲身经历,分析了其令人愉悦和令人困惑的两面性,并建议管理学界应停止忽视这一有价值的研究方式。
We seek to contribute to the ongoing discussion about interdisciplinary research by contextualizing its benefits, challenges, and realities specifically within the management field. The purpose of this Musing is to highlight the a“musing” (i.e., entertaining) and be“musing” (i.e., confusing) experiences that we have had trying to publish interdisciplinary research so we can offer some recommendations for how the management field can stop ignoring something we all claim to be of great value. In our experience, interdisciplinary research is amusing if you're intrinsically motivated to do it, but it is bemusing if you expect it to be tied to extrinsic rewards.
