1Call for Papers - JAIS Theory Development Workshop

JAIS-sponsored Theory Development Workshop in Association with ICIS 2020

Since December 2002, the Journal of the Association for Information Systems (JAIS) has organized a number of successful Theory Development Workshops. This year we will hold the 18th JAIS Theory Development Workshop in conjunction with ICIS 2020 in a virtual venue. This workshop is scheduled to take place from 9:00 am - 12:00 pm on Sunday, December 13, 2020 (date/time to be confirmed). Because the workshop is virtual this year, there will be no associated fees.

Workshop Information

The workshop is focused on theory building and conceptual foundations in the information systems field. In particular, this workshop is interested in new theory development from an analysis of literature, as opposed to grounded theory development from empirical data. Workshop participants will discuss their work with JAIS board members and other workshop participants. To be considered, authors must demonstrate significant theory development in their submission. While the breakout sessions are limited to those with accepted abstracts, the speaker sessions are open to all registrants, whether your submission is accepted or not.
