Keywords |
Authors should provide appropriate and short keywords that relate to the main topics of the paper. The maximum number of keywords is 10. |
Article Classifications |
Authors must categorize their paper as part of the submission process. The category which most closely describes their paper should be selected from the list below.
Research paper. This category covers papers that report on any research undertaken by the author(s). The research may involve constructing or testing a model or framework, action research, testing of data, market research or surveys, empirical, scientific, or clinical research.
Viewpoint. Any paper where content is dependent on the author's opinion and interpretation should be included in this category; this also includes journalistic pieces.
Technical paper. Describes and evaluates technical products, processes, or services.
Conceptual paper. These papers will not be based on research but will develop hypotheses. The papers are likely to be discursive and will cover philosophical discussions and comparative studies of others' work and thinking.
Case study. Case studies describe actual interventions or experiences within organizations. They may well be subjective and will not generally report on research. A description of a legal case or a hypothetical case study used as a teaching exercise would also fit into this category.
Literature review. It is expected that all types of paper cite any relevant literature, so this category should only be used if the primary purpose of the paper is to annotate and critique the literature in a particular subject area. It may be a selective bibliography providing advice on information sources. It may be comprehensive in that the paper aims to cover the main contributors to developing a topic and exploring their different views.
General review. This category covers those papers which provide an overview or historical examination of some concept, technique, or phenomenon. The papers are likely to be more descriptive or instructional ("how to" papers) than discursive (Source: Manuscript requirement of emerald) |
