Abstract
In this article, I provide a brief introduction to the use of experiments in purchasing and supply management research. Different types of experiments common within the field are introduced, and within these types I compare the strengths and weaknesses regarding reliability and validity concerns and the limitations surrounding participant pools. Topics for which experimentation is appropriate and useful are identified, and examples of recent work in the field provided. Several trends and future research opportunities are presented to inspire more work in this arena.
