| Abstract: | In this article, the authors examine the use of the key informant methodology by researchers investigating interorganizational relationships. Authors have advocated the use of multiple informants to increase the reliabilitiy and validity of informant reports. However, interorganizational research still tends to rely on single informants. The authors investigated informant selection and obtaining perceptual agreement among multiple informants, two problems that may have inhibited widespread use of multiple informants. |
