Abstract
Abstract: After almost 30 years of being used in the
information system (IS) discipline, only a few studies have focused
on how IS scholars apply the method's guidelines to design Delphi
studies. Thus, this paper focuses on the use of the Delphi method in
IS research. To do so, articles published between 2004 and 2017 in
the Senior IS Scholars' collection of journals of the Association of
Information Systems (AIS), describing Delphi studies, were analised.
Based on analysis of sixteen (16) retrieved IS studies, we concluded
that IS researchers have applied the method’s most important phases
and the procedural recommendations to promote rigor were considered
in the majority of the analised studies. Nonetheless, IS researchers
still need to include detailed information about (1) the steps taken
to ensure the validity of the achieved results, (2) better describe
the process of selecting and recruiting the experts, and (3)
experiment with innovative techniques to keep participants involved
in the Delphi process.
