Don't Shake the Chauffeur's Hand [electronic resource] : Toward Reliable Knowledge About Industrial Life / R. Alan Hedley and Thomas C. Taveggia.

Unanticipated obstacles and difficulties, endemic to industrial research in complex sociocultural settings, indicate that reliable conclusions concerning industrial life are problematic. Discussion of sampling biases reveals that error of unknown proportions is introduced into the research process:...

520 |a Unanticipated obstacles and difficulties, endemic to industrial research in complex sociocultural settings, indicate that reliable conclusions concerning industrial life are problematic. Discussion of sampling biases reveals that error of unknown proportions is introduced into the research process: first, when decisions about whom to study are made; second, when "entree" is attempted; and third, when individual response cooperation is solicited. The authors conclude that only when data are cumulated across a sizable number of independent studies can reliable conclusions about industrial behavior be made. Also included are a six-item bibliography and a distribution list. (Author/BP)
