The Value of Formal Planning for Strategic Decisions: A Reply

J. Armstrong

General Economics and Teaching from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: In Armstrong (1982a), I examined alternative explanations to the empirical findings that supported the use of formal planning. In considering the possibility that researcher bias might lead to such results, I used Terpstra’s (1981) evaluation scheme. Based on this test, poor methodology did not seem responsible for the conclusions on the value of formal planning.
