• In Event: Teaching, Learning, and Curriculum 1

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to examine whether there are differences among accounting’s doctoral programs with respect to accounting education research. This research examined three accounting-education journals for the 30-year period between 1983 and 2012. While we identified publications over a 30-year period, we examined differences for the most recent doctoral year groups from 2003 to 2012 (most recent 10 years) and 1993 to 2012 (most recent 20 years). We used publication data standardized for number of graduates and standardized for both the number of graduates and years since graduation.
