More Description"Advances in Qualitative Organization Research is an annual series devoted to the publication of qualitative research relevant to the interests of organizational scholars. As used to define the domain of AQOR, qualitative research encompasses all forms of field research performed with qualitative date, that is, data that present themselves in non-numeric form. Such research may be conducted using methods that are qualitative or a combination of qualitative and quantitative, with the aim of developing a thick description and grounded understanding of the focus of inquiry. Articles appearing in AQOR may concern topics derived from any of the organization sciences, including but not limited to the areas of Organizational Behaviour, Organization Theory, Strategic Management, Human Resource Management, and Organization Development.
AQOR is intended to appeal to a broad audience of organizational researchers, including those who are interested in publishing detailed qualitative studies of their own and in learning more about the methods and methodologies of qualitative research. At the same time, purely quantitative organizational researchers should find AQOR valuable as a source of grounded insights and testable hypotheses. The need for an annual series like AQOR grows out of the absence of a periodic outlet offering the physical space per manuscript required to write a meaningfully deep description of qualitative data and, at the same time, a sufficiently detailed theoretical interpretation and conceptual conclusion.
