Diary studies

Year: 2023

Type: book-chapter

Abstract: Although diary studies have become popular in organizational health research in recent years, this advanced quantitative methodology is rarely used in workplace research. This chapter introduces this methodology, helping workplace researchers to get access to the required knowledge, and presents an overview of how diary methods can increase the rigour in studying workplace phenomena. The chapter describes and demonstrates the application of diary-style methods for quantitative workplace research. It describes different types of study designs and their practical and methodological considerations. Several studies exemplify the application of this method. This chapter concludes with recommendations for the implementation of diary studies.
