| Tiivistelmä: | Throughout its history, the information systems (IS) discipline has engaged in extensive self-examination, particularly with regard to its apparent diversity. The authors' overall objective in this study is to better understand the diversity in IS research, and the extent to which diversity is universal across journals that publish IS research. The authors of the article developed a classification system that comprises five key characteristics of diversity (reference discipline, level of analysis, topic, research approach, and research method) based on a review of prior literature. The authors then examined articles over a five-year period, from 1995 to 1999, in five journals acknowledged as the top journals of the field, at least in North America. |
