A critical analysis of decision support systems research (2005, neutral): “Other analyses of IS publishing have found a significant difference between the nature of research published in North American and European journals (Chen and Hirschheim, 2004; Lowry et al., 2004).”
Eight key issues for the decision support systems discipline (2008, background): “Key Issue 8 — discipline coherence Hirschheim and Klein [40], in a critical analysis of the state of the IS, argue that fragmentation is " the root cause of the field's potential crisis " (p. 11).”
A Paradigmatic Analysis of Information Systems As a Design Science (2007, methodology): “Well-known classifications of IS research methods such as those of Benbasat (1985), Jenkins (1985) and Galliers and Land (1987) do not recognize anything resembling constructive research methods, nor, even, does a recent review of research methods in the IS literature (Chen and Hirschheim 2004).”
Researches in Corporate Social Responsibility: A Review of Shifting Focus, Paradigms, and Methodologies (2011, methodology): “Adapting the research design categorizations from Orlikowski and Baroudi (1991) and Chen and Hirschheim (2004), the following research design categorizations were identified:”
Guest editorial: qualitative studies in information systems: a critical review and some guiding principles (2013, background): “…provide authoritative guidance and recommendations regarding how various types or aspects of qualitative research are to be conducted, others (e.g., Chen and Hirschheim 2004; Dubé and Paré 2003; Orlikowski and Baroudi 1991) offer reviews of methodology-related practices-in-use within the IS…”
Seizing the opportunity: towards a historiography of information systems (2012, neutral): “…that: most are a description of events broadly covering a couple of decades of IS, within a single organisation (see Land, 2000; Maier et al., 2002; Chen and Hirschheim, 2004; D’Arcy et al., 2008); some focused on using a few historical concepts or techniques applied to a broader time scale (Robey…”
A Framework for Guiding and Evaluating Literature Reviews (2015, neutral): “Indeed, the domain’s maturity is evidenced by the increasing volume of published IS research, the emergence of well-established journal outlets (Chen & Hirschheim, 2004), and the development of IS research perspectives and theories (Baskerville & Myers, 2002; Webster & Watson, 2002).”
The Research Audit Trial - Enhancing Trustworthiness in Qualitative Inquiry (2009, methodology): “It was employed in 36% of research designs studied by Chen and Hirschheim (2004).”
