Journal of Management Accounting Research Conference

Seattle, Washington

January 8, 2010


The Journal of Management Accounting Research is pleased to announce the first annual JMAR Conference, to be held January 8, 2009 during the Management Accounting Section Mid-Year Meeting to be held in Seattle, Washington January 8-9, 2010.

Papers accepted for the JMAR Conference are to be presented by the authors at a special session of the Mid-Year Meeting devoted exclusively to Conference papers. A discussant also will present comments at the session. In addition, papers accepted for the Conference will be published in JMAR, provided that the authors adequately address the comments of the Editor and reviewers. The discussant will be invited to write a short paper describing the comments delivered at the Conference, which would then be published as well.

All management accounting topics are welcome, including those that take empirical (archival, experimental or field-based) or theoretical approaches to such topics as budgeting, costing, organizational decision-making and control, and performance evaluation.

The submission deadline for the JMAR Conference is July 1, 2009. At the author’s option, papers submitted for the JMAR Conference also may be considered for inclusion in a regular session at the Mid-Year Meeting, which is particularly relevant for papers that might not be accepted into the JMAR Conference.

IMPORTANT: Authors who also would like to have their paper considered for the regular Mid-Year Meeting must in addition submit it via the normal Mid-Year Meeting submission procedures.

Papers for the JMAR Conference should be submitted by sending an email to the JMAR Editor, stating that the paper is intended for the Conference, with the following word or pdf files attached: (1) cover page with author names and contact information and (2) coverless manuscript (with identifiers removed from the document properties). In addition, a submission fee of US$50 should be paid online at http://aaahq.org/mas/JMAR/submissions.cfm.

Authors will be informed of editorial decisions for the Conference by October 15, 2009.
