Abstract: Abstract Information systems research as a social science is complex, diverse, and pluralistic, meaning that it can take many forms of inquiry, theory, and outcomes. The way information systems research is conducted as well as the goals, theory and assumptions of the research can vary significantly. This is probably most evident in the choices related to the selection of an appropriate research methodology, as we discussed in Sect. 3.3 above.
