round-table discussions with senior scholars.
Accepted papers will need to show both relevance and methodological
rigor. The best contributions will be published in a Springer volume
“Lecture Notes in Information Systems and Organization” series,
indexed on Scopus. Top-quality papers will be invited to a fast-track to
the DATA Base for Advances in Information Systems Journal (Q1, ranked A

Subject: [AISWorld] HICSS 55 CFP on open science practices in
information systems research
Date: Sun, 2 May 2021 07:09:39 +0000
From: Cathal Doyle <cathal.doyle(a)vuw.ac.nz>
To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org>
Kia ora (Hello)
We’re delighted to announce we’re running a minitrack at HICSS 55 on
open science practices in information systems research. The objective of
this minitrack is to give researchers the opportunity to present novel
and innovative ways that they are conducting research using open
science. In doing so we aim to push the boundary of how IS research is
conducted and communicated to the community. In order to do so, we are
looking for both conceptual and empirical papers that either further our
understanding of open science in IS research, or studies that practice
it. Thus, we invite papers that focus on (but is not limited to) any of
the following topics around open science in IS research:
* Philosophical considerations
* Ethical implications
* Methodological considerations
* Policies of open science
* Papers that practice one (or more) concepts of open science in their study
* Registered reports in IS research (can be either stage 1 or stage 2)
* Understanding of different platforms/tools/technologies for practicing
open science
* Success/Failure cases that have arisen while practicing open science
* How we can improve or innovate open science practices
* Benefits of practicing open science
* Challenges and/or problems with practicing open science
You can read more on the HICSS website:
https://hicss.hawaii.edu/tracks-55/collaboration-systems-and-technologies/#…
If you’re interested, please submit a paper for review. If not, could
you please forward this message to your networks, or to other colleagues
you think might be interested.
Further, here are links to two papers that provide a good introduction
to open science: “We need the open artefact: Design Science as a
pathway to Open Science in Information Systems research”
(https://doi.org/10.31219/osf.io/ye6xp) and “This paper is an
artefact: On open science practices in design science research using
registered reports” (https://doi.org/10.31219/osf.io/d8hej). And here
is a paper practicing open science that was accepted for JAIS: “New
Guidelines for Null Hypothesis Significance Testing in
Hypothetico-Deductive IS Research”
(https://doi.org/10.31235/osf.io/5qr7v).
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
