Advances in Accounting Education

(Formerly Accounting Education: A Journal of Theory, Practice and Research)

Advances in Accounting Education (formerly Accounting Education: A Journal of Theory, Practice and Research) is a refereed, research annual whose purpose is to meet the needs of individuals interested in the educational process. Articles may be non-empirical or empirical. Our emphasis is pedagogy, and articles MUST explain how teaching methods or curricula/programs can be improved.

Non-empirical manuscripts should be academically rigorous. They can be theoretical syntheses, conceptual models, position papers, discussions of methodology, comprehensive literature reviews grounded in theory, or historical discussions with implications for current and future efforts. Reasonable assumptions and logical development are essential. Most manuscripts should discuss implications for research.

For empirical reports sound research design and execution are critical. Articles should have well articulated and strong theoretical foundations. In this regard, establishing a link to the non-accounting literature is desirable. Replications and extensions of previously published works are encouraged. As a means for establishing an open dialogue, responses to or comments on articles published previously are welcomed.

Submission Information
Three copies are required. Submission Fee is $35. Manuscripts should include a cover page which indicates the author's name and address and a separate lead page with an abstract not exceeding 250 words. The author's name and address should not appear on the abstract. In order to assure an anonymous review, authors should not identify themselves directly or indirectly. Reference to unpublished working papers and dissertations should be avoided.
