The Journal of Management Accounting Research (JMAR) is pleased to announce the forthcoming SPECIAL INTEREST FORUM ON SURVEY RESEARCH, co-edited by Professors Sally K. Widener, Clemson University, and Roland F. Speklé, Nyenrode University, The Netherlands.
The Special Interest Forum explores how rigorous and innovative survey-based research extends our understanding of important questions and provides a valuable method for the testing of theory. Such research will help steer the future direction of management accounting research and facilitate the development of new theories, providing interesting insights that either shed thought-provoking new light on inferences of prior research, or that reveal real-world phenomenon in need of additional research. Discussion articles set forth best practices for the 'doing' of survey research and examine methodological issues associated with such studies.
Articles are available now in the Online Early digital library (http://aaajournals.org/toc/jmar/0/0) and will publish in Summer 2018 (Volume 30, Issue 2).
