π₯Literature sampling quality is the strongest correlate of review impact (Simsek et al., 2023).
Are you working on a systematic literature review (SLR) or meta-analysis (MA) and want expert feedback on your sampling strategy? Join us for a highly interactive PDW with senior experts and journal editors from Academy of Management Annals, Academy of Management Review, International Journal of Management Reviews, Organizational Research Methods, Journal of Management, Journal of Organization Design, and Journal of World Business, and Technological Forecasting & Social Change.
Participants may attend without prior registration, yet to receive feedback and match you with one of our roundtable panelists, please submit your review project and sampling-related questions via this form: https://forms.gle/MFSMwd3LqVCcEx5y7 (first come-first served, seating is limited). All submissions will be treated confidentially and used to assign you to the most relevant roundtable.
The PDW will cover best practices and emerging standards for literature sampling in SLRs and MAs, drawing from authoritative frameworks such as the Cochrane Handbook and PRISMA guidelines. The session will also address recent advances in sampling strategies and demonstrate how AI tools can support systematicity and rigor-without compromising transparency or replicability.
To make this early-morning PDW a bit sweeter, we'll also have small treats waiting for you! π¬π
