Human resource management, a sub-discipline of social science, is concerned with both researching practice and building theory. It encompasses both a scientific (epistemological) and reality-based (ontological) perspective. The field of HRM has become an interesting subject of methodological research because of its scientific maturity. This article is an attempt to discuss the significance of reflexivity in the research process with particular emphasis on HRM research. It is also intended to answer questions such as: What does reflexivity mean? What are reflexivity techniques? How are HRM researchers reflexive? This study is based on a content analysis of the most cited articles in the field of HRM. The findings show that the majority of authors use reflexivity techniques encompassing methods, data interpretation, and results. The direction outlined for the future indicates that more research reflexivity is required. (original abstract)

Zarządzanie zasobami ludzkimi jako subdyscyplina nauk społecznych koncentruje się zarówno na badaniu praktyki, jak i budowaniu teorii. Obejmuje perspektywę naukową (epistemologiczną) i rzeczywistą (ontologiczną). Wydaje się, że badania w obszarze ZZL stały się interesującym przedmiotem badań metodologicznych ze względu na dojrzałość naukową tego obszaru. Celem niniejszego artykułu jest podjęcie dyskusji nad znaczeniem refleksyjności w procesie badawczym, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem badań w obszarze ZZL, oraz odpowiedź na pytania: Czym jest refleksyjność? Jakie są techniki refleksyjności? W jaki sposób badacze mogą wyrażać refleksyjność? W ramach niniejszych badań dokonano analizy treści najczęściej cytowanych artykułów z dziedziny ZZL. Wyniki badań wskazują, że większość autorów stosuje różne techniki refleksyjności - najczęściej dotyczące interpretacji danych i otrzymanych wyników. (abstrakt oryginalny)
