The relevance of the study has been recognized as the main factor of rejection or acceptance of articles by journals editors. Thus, justifying the study in a clear and persuasive way is a preponderant knowledge for the researchers. However, despite the importance, the research manuals superficially treat the presentation of the relevance of a research. Thus, the objective of this article is to identify the types of arguments used to justify scientific research in Administration. To obtain the answer, we used exploratory research implemented by mixed methods (concomitant triangulation). As a result, six types of arguments were identified for articles in the Administration area: authority arguments, scarcity, theoretical contribution, necessity, practical contribution and gap.
