Individual and Institutional Contributors to Research in Accounting Education

Abstract

This study provides an appraisal of contributor sources for research published in the primary serial outlets for accounting education based on an analysis of individual author sources, institutional affiliations, and the geographic origins of research contributors. The study improves upon previously published contributor analysis and ranking studies in accounting by offering separate recognition of the leading individual and institutional sources of education learning and pedagogical research. The analysis is based on 868 articles published in six accounting education journals for ten years 1998 to 2007. Results from the study indicate that accounting education provides a vehicle for scholarly dialogue across a very broad segment of the accounting research community worldwide. The study identifies the top 25 most frequently contributing individuals and a ranking of the top 40 institutional sources for published research. Findings also indicate that accounting education research continues its emergence as a respected avenue for intellectual pursuit as evidenced by the substantial number of contributing authors affiliated with quality doctoral degree granting institutions.
