Abstract | Utilizing Patterson's (1983) eight criteria for assessing theory in applied fields from a conventional (empirical-analytical) perspective, these criteria are evaluated and where applicable reconstructed from an interpretive (social constructivist) perspective of theory building research and assessment. Four additional criteria are proposed and described, namely, compellingness, saturation, prompt to action, and fittingness. The task of developing such criteria from different paradigms of inquiry while ensuring paradigmatic congruence holds particular challenges, some of which are discussed. (Contains 1 table.) (As Provided). |
