Abstract
Abstract When theorizing, it is sometimes colloquially said “I reckon…” This essay attempts to reckon with theorizing by proposing a heuristic for systematically gauging rigorous and/or meaningful theoretical research with the analysis of eight factors: novelty, challenge, relevance, power, fecundity, usefulness, deliberateness, and clarity. These factors offer a manual for theorists writing theoretical research, and a loose set of considerations to begin discussions of what it is that makes invigorating theory.
