چکیده

abstract


This paper assesses the development and state of positivist management accounting research (PMAR). Based on a content analysis of 375 papers published in nine accounting journals over four decades, we conclude that a diverse set of research methods and theories, along with a consideration of validity, are necessary prerequisites for the accumulation of knowledge on management accounting (MA) practice. In light of diversity, we examine the studies with regard to their contents, methods and theoretical perspectives. Our analyses on validity comprise multiple facets of internal, external, construct and statistical conclusion validity. Regarding diversity, our findings suggestthat PMAR has recently become narrower in terms of topics as it increasingly focuses on control issues. However, PMAR continues to rely on a variety of research methods and theoretical perspectives. Regarding validity, we find improvements for all four types of validity over time. However, potential for further progress persists. We discuss our findings in light of recent debates regarding the state of PMAR and highlight avenues for future research. Overall, we consider our study useful for assessing the discipline’s achievements and evaluating its future paths.

Discussion


This paper assesses diversity and validity in PMAR based on a content analysis of 375 papers published over four decades. We argue that a diverse set of research methods and theories, along with the consideration of validity, constitute important prerequisites for the accumulation of knowledge on MA practice (e.g., Bonner et al., 2012; Edwards et al., 2013; Hoque et al., 2013; Luft and Shields, 2002; Merchant et al., 2003). Our analysis relies on the propositions that the diversity of research approaches and the validity of inferences increase as PMAR moves forward from the description of MA practice towards its explanation. However, in light of recent debates on the state of MA research, we consider that institutional pressures may put such progress into perspective (e.g., Birnberg, 2009; Merchant, 2010).
