Diversity in information systems action research methods
本文描述了信息系统行动研究中不同框架、假设和目标，提出了一个更包容的行动研究范式，以验证更广泛的信息系统研究，帮助研究者明确方法论并改进评判标准。
Discussions of action research in information systems (IS) often proceed as if there were one definitive action research method. This paper describes and analyses the different frameworks, assumptions and goals that characterise the diverse forms of action research. A more inclusive action research paradigm is delineated that offers a basis for validating a wider range of IS research. Acceptance of the full range of the diverse forms of action research may enable the IS field to be more explicit about its research methodology, thereby enabling criteria to be improved and applied to a broader range of IS research.
