This paper assumes that literature reviews, which represent a powerful instrument for the identification and synthesis of knowledge, have not tapped their full potential to address this issue due to deficiencies in methodology. The analysis of 18 literature reviews published in pertinent academic outlets during the past 20 years shows such deficiencies. Two of the most critical weaknesses identified are (1) the lack of theory use in most reviews and (2) a weak linkage of reviews, resulting in little progress in theory and framework development. The systematic identification of these weaknesses and the extraction of promising methodological examples from past literature are the main contributions of this work, which supports the composition of more effective literature reviews in future research.}}, author = {{Schryen, Guido}}, booktitle = {{Proceedings of the First Scandinavian Conference on Information Systems (SCIS)}}, keywords = {{Literature review, Business value, Information systems, Methodology, Theory}}, title = {{{An Analysis of Literature Reviews on IS Business Value: How Deficiencies in Methodology and Theory Use Resulted in Limited Effectiveness}}}, year = {{2010}}, } @article{5644, abstract = {{The economic relevance of information systems has been studied for many years and has attracted an abundance of research papers. However, the ?productivity paradoxon? of the 90s, Carr?s widely recognized paper ?IT doesn?t matter?, and several studies that do not find a positive correlation between IS investments and economic performance reveal long-lasting difficulties for IS researchers to explain ?IS business value?. Business executives and researchers also continue to question the value of IS investments. This raises the question of whether literature reviews have tapped their potential to address the concerns by covering key research areas of IS business value and preserving their key findings. In order to address this question, this paper identifies and describes 12 key research areas, and synthesizes what literature reviews published in pertinent academic outlets have done to preserve knowledge. The analysis of 22 literature reviews shows that some crucial areas have not been (sufficiently) covered. They provide fertile areas for future literature reviews. As this work is based on the results of more than 200 research papers, it is capable of drawing a comprehensive picture of the current state-of-the-art in IS business value research.}}, author = {{Schryen, Guido}}, journal = {{Business \& Information Systems Engineering (BISE)}}, keywords = {{Business value, Information systems, Literature review, Meta review}}, number = {{4}}, pages = {{225--237}}, publisher = {{Springer}}, title = {{{Preserving knowledge on IS business value: what literature reviews have done}}}, volume = {{52}}, year = {{2010}}, }
