Objectives

IJBAF aims to be a leading journal for publishing original papers reporting the results of research that address behavioural issues in accounting or finance. The term 'behavioural issues' is interpreted widely and includes but is not limited to economic, managerial, psychological and social issues underpinning individuals, groups, organisations, financial markets, and society. The majority of the papers in IJBAF employ empirical methods (econometric or experimental) as a central feature of their research design. Alternative research methods such as case studies will be considered where these are appropriate for the research question. Commentaries or discussions of previously published papers are also welcome but these would usually be shorter papers.


Readership
  • Educational institutes around the world (e.g., universities, polytechnics, colleges)
  • Public and university libraries
  • Financial institutions and banks around the world
  • Professional bodies in accounting and finance

Contents

IJBAF publishes original papers, review papers, technical reports, case studies, conference reports, management reports, book reviews, notes, commentaries, and news. Special Issues devoted to important topics in behavioural accounting and finance will occasionally be published.
