How Are Great Papers Born? – August 2023
JMRs How I Wrote This Podcasts now available on Spotify and Apple
How are great papers born? Listen to the new podcast, How I Wrote This, in which JMR co-editors Brett Gordon and Karen Winterich interview the authors of great marketing papers to demystify how great papers come to be. The and the first two episodes are now available on iTunes (click ) and Spotify (click ) or wherever you get your podcasts. In the first episode, Brett speaks with Dina Mayzlin and Judy Chevalier to talk about their 2006 JMR paper, The Effect of Word of Mouth on Sales: Online Book Reviews. Youll hear how a seemingly innocuous post-seminar question spurred this successful collaboration, which ultimately landed them the 2011 ODell Award for making significant long-term contributions to marketing. In the second episode, join Karen Winterichs interview with Maura Scott and Martin Mende as they talk about transporting a 600-pound robot through the streets of New York City to make realistic stimuli for their 2019 JMR paper, Service Robots Rising. When their paper was first rejected at another journal, they took the reviewer feedback seriously and substantially revised their paper to increase the realism of their studies before submitting it to JMR, where it has been very well-cited.

Changes to JMRs Submission Flow
- ChatGPT and Generative AI are productivity tools that can help authors in preparing their submissions, but these language models have limitations and are unable to replicate human creative and critical thinking. Our publisher, Sage, recognizes both the potential benefits and limitations in its . We now ask authors to clearly indicate whether any of the content of their submission is AI-generated.
- We have removed the question in our submission flow asking authors to indicate whether their manuscript has previously been rejected at another journal. Our Manuscript Central platform now provides more diagnostics identifying previous submissions of the same/similar manuscripts at JMR and other journals.
