Research Commentary: Diversity in Information Systems Research: Threat, Promise, and Responsibility
Abstract
This paper confirms the evidence of diversity in information systems (IS) research and identifies the ways in which diversity both threatens and advances the field of IS. While advocating diversity within the field of IS, the paper also discusses the responsibilities that must be assumed by IS researchers. Responsibilities include a “disciplined methodological pluralism” (Landry and Banville [Landry, M., C. Banville. 1992. A disciplined methodological pluralism for MIS research. Accounting, Management and Inform. Technologies 2(2, April–June) 77–97.) in which researchers clearly justify their research aims, theories, and methods. Responsibilities also include researchers’ commitment to collaborative ideals.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
