Ranking Accounting Scholars Publishing Education Papers: A Seven-Country Study

• In Event: Accounting Publications

Abstract

This paper ranks accounting’s education authors from seven countries: Australia, England, New Zealand, Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. We examined 13 journals whose mission was to publish accounting education papers. While Zamojcin and Bernardi (2013) provide comprehensive rankings of authors in accounting education, these rankings are limited to authors located in the United States and Canada. This research provides data on the overall distribution of authors by the number of education publications and ranks the top 50 authors for three periods. The research also compares data from these seven countries with similar data from the United States and Canada relating to the growth of accounting education publications. Finally, the research makes suggestions for increasing the level of accounting education publications for the current sample.
