Journal of Supply Chain Management

ournal of Supply Chain Management Mission: The mission of the Journal of Supply Chain Management (JSCM) is to be the premier choice among supply chain management scholars from various disciplines. It aims to attract high-quality, impactful behavioral research that focuses on theory building and employs rigorous empirical methodologies. Article Requirements: An article published in JSCM must make a significant contribution to supply chain management theory. This contribution can be achieved through either an inductive, theory-building process or a deductive, theory-testing approach. This contribution may manifest in various ways, such as falsification of conventional understanding, theory-building through conceptual development, inductive or qualitative research, initial empirical testing of a theory, theoretically-based meta-analysis, or constructive replication that clarifies the boundaries or range of a theory. Theoretical Contribution: Manuscripts should explicitly convey the theoretical contribution relative to the existing supply chain management literature, and when appropriate, to the literature outside of supply chain management (e.g., management theory, psychology, economics). Empirical Contribution: Manuscripts published in JSCM must also provide strong empirical contributions. While conceptual manuscripts are welcomed, they must significantly advance theory in the field of supply chain management and be firmly grounded in existing theory and relevant literature. For empirical manuscripts, authors must adequately assess validity, which is essential for empirical research, whether quantitative or qualitative.

Journal of Supply Chain Management（JSCM）的使命是成为各学科供应链管理学者的首选刊物。它致力于吸引高质量、有影响力的行为研究，这些研究注重理论建设并采用严格的实证方法。在该期刊发表的文章必须对供应链管理理论做出重大贡献，这一贡献可以通过归纳式的理论构建过程或演绎式的理论检验方法来实现。理论贡献应明确表达对现有供应链管理文献的贡献，并在适当时表达对供应链管理以外文献（如管理理论、心理学、经济学）的理论贡献。此外，稿件还应提供强有力的经验贡献，概念性稿件必须推进供应链管理领域的理论，并以现有理论和相关文献为基础。
