Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this study is to determine what research methods were used in studies on management and international affairs by querying databases. In order to conduct this study, we have chosen the method of documentary research, selecting publications of the past five years. While quantitative methods and qualitative methods come with their own disadvantages, using mixed methods and multiple data sources can result in findings that are both valid and reliable. We have found that this type of study, focusing on the research methods used in management and international affairs, is a relatively rare occurrence. This type of study is useful to researchers, students and professors who are interested in the research methods used in the fields of management and international affairs.
