Excerpt

At Asia Pacific Journal of Management (APJM) we receive many queries from prospective authors about publishing in APJM. In response, we have been running a series of articles that aim to assist prospective authors in that endeavor.1 This paper briefly summarizes those APJM articles along with some other helpful publications that have appeared elsewhere in the management literature so authors will have a quick reference to this work (cf. Ahlstrom, 2011b).2

Fußnoten
1
The Academy of Management Journal is also running a series of seven editorial articles on publishing in AMJ in 2011 and 2012 that authors should find very helpful (e.g., Colquitt & George, 2011).
 
2
It is impossible to mention even a small percentage of the many works helpful to management and organization scholars in their research. For some helpful instructions, review articles, and summaries of the research design literatures see Bono and McNamara (2011), Creswell (2008), Cummings and Frost (1985, 1995), Huff (1999, 2008), Ismail and Ford (2010), Kilduff (2007), Machi and McEvoy (2008), and Van de Ven (2007).
 
3
For some additional good examples of introductions see Carney et al. (2009) and Meyer et al. (2009).
 
4
It bears repeating that although theory is very important at APJM, it is not the only contribution that a paper should make. Submissions should suggest contributions to practice, and if data are collected, some empirical contribution should be provided. Others include contributions to research design and methods (Ahlstrom et al., 2009; Peng, 2004).
