CALL FOR PAPERS
2004 ABO Research Conference

The 2004 ABO conference will be held in October 2004 (exact dates and site to be determined). Papers should be submitted by Friday, July 2, 2004. Selection of conference papers will be announced by Friday, August 20, 2004. Submitted papers should not have been accepted for publication at the time of the submission. Authors may simultaneously submit their paper for consideration for publication in Behavioral Research in Accounting (with no additional BRIA submission fee), if desired. Please include a note to indicate whether the paper should be simultaneously submitted to BRIA for publication consideration. The paper will NOT be simultaneously submitted to BRIA unless the author specifically requests such a submission.

BRIA decision making and conference decision making, however, are independent processes. No separate conference issue of BRIA will be published.

Email submissions of papers for the conference should be sent to Professor Rich Houston (rhouston@cba.ua.edu) as Word attachments. Research papers should follow the style guidelines of Behavioral Research in Accounting. To preserve anonymity, email the cover page and the remainder of the manuscript as separate files. For field surveys or experiments, also email the research instrument, removing the identities of the authors.

Early submission is highly encouraged. The submission fee will be $75.00—details on payment will be forthcoming with the formal conference announcement.*
