This series publishes articles encompassing all areas of accounting that incorporate theory from and contribute new knowledge and understanding to the fields of applied psychology, sociology, management science, and economics. Although the series is primarily devoted to original empirical investigations, critical review papers, theoretical analyses, and methodological contributions are also welcome, as well as manuscripts that deal with organizational behavior and human decision processes in accounting.
