DocSIG Scholarly Insights is back for its Summer 2025 call for blog posts!


AMA DocSIG Scholarly Insights works with the Journal of Marketing Research (JMR) and recruits doctoral students to interview the authors of recent publications. Doctoral students have a unique opportunity to connect with top researchers in the field of marketing, gather deeper insights into recently published articles, and prepare a summary article of their findings. Previous blog posts are available here (https://www.ama.org/article-types/jmr-scholarly-insights/).

Make your summer count, and sign up for Scholarly Insights by AMA DocSIG!
