JMR Scholarly Insights by AMA DocSIG is a blog series that involves doctoral students delving into some of the most recent Journal of Marketing Research articles in order to develop insightful questions for interviews with the authors of these articles. The focus of these questions is to highlight the uniqueness and contributions of each article, thus allowing for interesting and insightful discussions. This is a wonderful opportunity that allows students to connect with faculty who are publishing in one of the world’s most prestigious marketing journals.
Students who participate in Scholarly Insights by AMA DocSIG will work in pairs to develop a blog post covering a recent Journal of Marketing Research article. Participants will choose an article of interest to them from the available set and review it to devise a list of six questions (three from each participant) that they will then ask the article’s authors in order to provide additional insights. Once the author’s responses have been collected, the participants will correspond with the Vice Chairs of Scholarly Insights (Benjamin Britton and Brandon Holle) where their work will be finalized into blog posts that are then posted on ama.org via the Journal of Marketing Research main page HERE, with corresponding posts on JMR’s LinkedIn page, recognizing the article and blog post authors.
