Journal of Business Research, 2019, vol. 101, issue C, 40-46

Abstract: Researchers are confronted with uncertain expectations and demands regarding their potential reliance on rich, multifaceted datasets. In particular, generating multiple papers from such datasets requires careful navigation of the publication process, as this practice is concurrently incentivized and fraught with potentially unanticipated risks. The current essay outlines several issues facing researchers seeking to generate multiple publications from common datasets, with emphasis on identifying the challenges associated with and the concurrent need for relying on such datasets when conducting programmatic research. Expectations and guidelines for editors, reviewers, and authors are offered.
