Abstract

Decision‐making in executive information systems (EIS) frequently involves scanning complex sets of multidimensional data, which can be difficult with traditional data portrayal techniques. Therefore, schematic faces may be useful in EIS. Schematic faces can represent up to 20 variables by mapping those variables to the salient facial features so that positive outcomes result in a happier looking face, thus simplifying the data scanning process. The composites of the variables, i.e. the faces, aid management by providing a sophisticated graphical interface between the data and the decision maker. An experiment was conducted to compare decision time and accuracy when basing decisions on tables, bar charts, and schematic faces. The gender and cognitive style of subjects were also considered. MANOVA results indicate that both decision speed and accuracy are better when viewing schematic faces. Cognitive style was also a significant factor in the model.

Abstract

This research provides accounting-ethics authors and administrators with a benchmark for accounting-ethics research. While Bernardi and Bean (2010) considered publications in business-ethics and accounting’s top-40 journals this study considers research in eight accounting-ethics and public-interest journals, as well as, 34 business-ethics journals. We analyzed the contents of our 42 journals for the 25-year period between 1991 through 2015. This research documents the continued growth (Bernardi & Bean, 2007) of accounting-ethics research in both accounting-ethics and business-ethics journals. We provide data on the top-10 ethics authors in each doctoral year group, the top-50 ethics authors over the most recent 10, 20, and 25 years, and a distribution among ethics scholars for these periods. For the 25-year timeframe, our data indicate that only 665 (274) of the 5,125 accounting PhDs/DBAs (13.0% and 5.4% respectively) in Canada and the United States had authored or co-authored one (more than one) ethics article.
