History

An article will be eligible for consideration to receive the Sheth Foundation/Journal of Marketing award in the fifth year after its publication in the Journal of Marketing. The criteria for selection include the quality of the article’s contribution to theory and practice, its originality, its technical competence (if relevant), and its impact on the field of marketing.


Process

  • A vote by Journal of Marketing’s ERB, AE, and Advisory Committee members will be conducted on all eligible articles (listed in order of appearance in an online survey along with abstracts). Each voter can select up to five articles. Editorials, commentaries, or other invited articles are not eligible for this award.
  • Articles receiving the highest number of votes will be selected as finalists with the final number dependent on the distribution of the votes; typically, no more than five finalists are selected.
  • The author(s) of each finalist article will be asked to write a 750-word statement in support of their article’s nomination.
  • The EIC will form a three-member committee from JM Coeditors, Past JM Editors, Advisory Committee members, and senior AEs. A current JM Coeditor will chair the committee. Upon selection, each member confirms they have no conflict of interest. JM’s conflict policy includes: You are presently a co-author or have previously coauthored a paper with any of the authors; any of the authors was or is your thesis advisor; any of the authors is a business partner or relative; any of the authors is from your institution; and any of the authors is currently or was formerly one of your PhD students, per AMA policy.
  • The award committee will make the final award selection and notify the EIC who will announce it to the marketing community.

Recognition and Benefits

The award will be presented at the upcoming Summer AMA Academic Conference.
