Rojon, C. and McDowall, Almuth and Saunders, M.N.K. (2011) On the experience of conducting a systematic review in industrial, work, and organizational psychology: yes, it is worthwhile. Journal of Personnel Psychology 10 (3), pp. 133-138. ISSN 1866-5888.
Abstract
Systematic Review methodology (SRm) is an increasingly popular choice for literature reviews in the Social Sciences. While compared to traditional narrative reviews SRm appears time-consuming and laborious, transparency and replicability of the methodology is argued to facilitate greater clarity of review. Nevertheless, researchers in Industrial, Work, and Organizational (IWO) Psychology have yet to embrace this methodology. Drawing on experience from conducting a Systematic Review (SR) of individual workplace performance we explore the premise: The advantages of SRm to IWO Psychology researchers outweigh the disadvantages. We offer observations, insights, and potential solutions to challenges faced during the reviewing process, concluding that SRm is worthwhile for IWO Psychology researchers.
