This PDW covers the entire research process from the beginning (i.e., generating and testing theory) to the end (i.e., enhancing research impact). It is useful for (a) research producers and (b) research consumers, including doctoral students, junior and senior researchers, and journal editors and reviewers. It includes checklists, tables, flowcharts, “how-to,” and “dos and don’ts” guidelines so participants can understand the extent to which methodological best practices are being followed—and so that they can follow best practices in their own research and evaluate the research by others.
