3rd AIMA World Conference on Management Accounting Research
Monterey Peninsula, Northern California, May 19-20, 2016
Co-Chairs: Marc J. Epstein and Mary A. Malina
BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND
After more than 10 years, Advances in Management Accounting is bringing back its biennial World Conference on Management Accounting Research. The 2003 and 2005 conferences were so successful that we were requested to continue the conference. It is designed as a small, unique research conference providing for rich discussions among 50-75 attendees on the beautiful Monterey Peninsula. The conference will include concurrent sessions along with plenaries by global leading academics. Accounting researchers are urged to submit papers for possible presentation.

CALL FOR PAPERS
AIMA is focused on advancing management accounting by publishing quality, thought-provoking articles utilizing a broad set of research methodologies. We are seeking thoughtful, high quality papers on a variety of current topics in management accounting, broadly defined. In addition to more traditional research papers, we welcome early stage ideas, frameworks, replications, and meta analyses. AIMA will publish some selected conference papers in future issues.
Topics considered for the conference include, but are not limited to:
- Strategy implementation and coordination with organizational structure, management systems and managerial behavior
- Finding solutions to the problems identified in the actual implementation of performance measurement systems
- Analyzing the conditions under which selected performance measurement and management control systems are more or less effective
- The state of the art of non-financial performance measures
- Cross-border and cross-culture differences in the use and impact of management control and performance measurement systems
- Research that spans the gap between management accounting and management
- Evolution in the use of management accounting research paradigms
We are open to a broad set of research methodologies. Authors are encouraged to provide abstracts or expressions of interest by September 15, 2015 to allow for some early feedback for final preparation of papers.
