Editorial Objectives

Advances in Accounting Behavioral Research promotes research that encompasses all areas of accounting that incorporates theory from and contributes knowledge and understanding to the fields of applied psychology, sociology, management science, and economics. This series has a specific interest in the development of new theory and insights into the use of existing theory.

Accordingly, reviews of established theory and how that theory has and could be used in accounting are also strongly encouraged.

Reviews:

Accounting and valuation is my main area of my research. The mix of behavioural science with accounting data makes things interesting to see and observe, the abnormalities of data linked with human behaviour. My personal research area is Ohlson (1995) Model that link the accounting results to market valuation. Behavioural aspect is quite interesting in this regard.
