Behavioural research is well established in the social sciences, and has flourished in the field of accounting in recent decades. This far-reaching and reliable collection provides a definitive resource on current knowledge in this new approach, as well as providing a guide to the development and implementation of a Behavioural Accounting Research project.
The Routledge Companion to Behavioural Accounting Research covers a full range of theoretical, methodological and statistical approaches relied upon by behavioural accounting researchers, giving the reader a good grounding in both theoretical perspectives and practical applications. The perspectives cover a range of countries and contexts, bringing in seminal chapters by an international selection of behavioural accounting scholars, including Robert Libby and William R. Kinney, Jr.
This book is a vital introduction for Ph.D. students as well as a valuable resource for established behavioural accounting researchers.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
'Useful not only for PhD students and young researchers but also for seasoned researchers who need a refresher of the framework of behavioural accounting research. The overall thrust of the book transcends the behavioural accounting research domain. The book is useful to any researcher committed to pursuing
rigorous accounting research.' - Ana Simpson, International Journal of Accounting.
'This book covers all bases necessary to learn how to become a competent behavioral researcher. It does a great job in laying out issues of theory, design, measurement and analysis. This is sure to be a classic for all PhD seminars in behavioral research and will also be useful as a gateway for those researchers looking at exploring and using behavioral methods.' - Jeff Cohen, Boston College-past Senior Editor at Auditing: A Journal of Practice and Theory (AJPT), Currently an Editor at Contemporary Accounting Research (CAR).
