摘要
本文剖析了Davis关于有趣性胜于真实性的研究策略未获管理学界重视的成因,然后以Davis理论为基础,结合管理研究中的两个特质(竞争研究者的作用,有趣性并非仅限于否定假设),构建了一个有趣性管理研究策略的"三角"框架,以此将有趣性管理研究策略定义为在一定背景下识别冲突、解决冲突和传递解决方案的动态过程,再据此识别出由五类冲突获取有趣性研究问题的方式,并梳理出有趣性地表达研究成果的做法。

①这里的interesting并非日常用语中简单的“有趣”含义,更多地是指能让人产生意料之外与情理之中相结合的一种奇妙之感,对此,学者们的翻译基本一致,如陈昭全和张志学在陈晓萍等编的《组织与管理研究的实证方法》中译为“有趣性”(2008:69),徐飞、路琳在译著《管理学中的伟大思想》中译为“有趣”(2005:289),徐淑英在其讲座《中国管理研究的严谨性与实用性:情境化的作用》中译为“有意思”。本文使用未必准确的“有趣性”一词,既有与这些看法保持一致的考虑,更主要的是没有找到恰当的词句,多少有些无奈。
