Research Methods in International Business

Research Methods in International Business, 1st Edition, is an anthology compiling impactful research methods papers from the Journal of International Business Studies. It provides methodological guidance across both qualitative and quantitative research traditions.

The volume examines study design, testing, and reporting, addressing challenges such as endogeneity, common method variance, and the reproducibility crisis in science. Methodological discussions emphasize best practices for hypothesis testing, interaction effects, and conceptualizing distance.

Each reprinted article is accompanied by an expert commentary, with several selections featuring further reflections by the original authors. The work supports students and scholars across international business sub-disciplines, including international economics, finance, entrepreneurship, management, and marketing.
