Journal of Accounting Education
The Journal of Accounting Education (JAEd) is a refereed journal dedicated to promoting and publishing research on accounting education issues and to improving the quality of accounting education worldwide.The Journal provides a vehicle for making results of empirical studies available to educators and for exchanging ideas, instructional resources, and best practices that help improve accounting education. The Journal includes four sections: a Main Articles Section, a Teaching and Educational Notes Section, an Educational Case Section, and a Best Practices Section. Manuscripts published in the Main Articles Section generally present results of empirical studies, although non-empirical papers (such as policy-related or essay papers) are sometimes published in this section. Papers published in the Teaching and Educational Notes Section include short empirical pieces (e.g., replications) as well as instructional resources that are not properly categorized as cases, which are published in a separate Case Section. Note: as part of the Teaching Note accompany educational cases, authors must include implementation guidance (based on actual case usage) and evidence regarding the efficacy of the case vis-a-vis a listing of educational objectives associated with the case. To meet the efficacy requirement, authors must include direct assessment (e.g grades by case requirement/objectiv... or pre-post tests). Although interesting and encouraged, student perceptions (surveys) are considered indirect assessment and do not meet the efficacy requirement. The case must have been used more than once in a course to avoid potential anomalies and to vet the case before submission. Authors may be asked to collect additional data, depending on course size/circumstances.T... Best Practices section includes individual and institutional practices related to, for example, student recruitment, student advising, student retention, alumni relations, and efforts to integrate accounting practice and accounting education. These articles are typically shorter in length than Main Section (i.e., research-based) articles. While such papers do not need evidence obtained on the basis of an experimental design (e.g., pre- versus post-test comparison), some evidence regarding the value or benefit of the best practice should be included, along with a discussion of relevant costs (out-of-pocket as well as opportunity costs, such as faculty time, practitioner involvement, etc.). Finally, note that the JAEd publishes manuscripts on all topics that are relevant to accounting education, including uses of technology, learning styles, assessment, curriculum, and faculty-related issues.- ISSN: 0748-5751

Critical Perspectives on Accounting
Critical Perspectives on Accounting aims to provide a forum for the growing number of accounting researchers and practitioners who realize that conventional theory and practice is ill-suited to the challenges of the modern environment, and that accounting practices and corporate behavior are inextricably connected with many allocative, distributive, social, and ecological problems of our era. From such concerns, a new literature is emerging that seeks to reformulate corporate, social, and political activity, and the theoretical and practical means by which we apprehend and affect that activity.Research areas includeStudies involving the political economy of accounting, critical accounting, radical accounting, and accounting's implication in the exercise of power Financial accounting's role in the processes of international capital formation, including its impact on stock market stability and international banking activitiesManagement accounting's role in organizing the labor process The relationship between accounting and the state in various social formationsStudies of accounting's historical role, as a means of "remembering" the subject's social and conflictual characterThe role of accounting in establishing "real" democracy at work and other domains of lifeAccounting's adjudicative function in international exchanges, such as that of the Third World debtAntagonisms between the social and private character of accounting, such as conflicts of interest in the audit processThe identification of new constituencies for radical and critical accounting informationAccountin... involvement in gender and class conflicts in the workplaceThe interplay between accounting, social conflict, industrialization, bureaucracy, and technocracyReapprais... of the role of accounting as a science and technologyCritical reviews of "useful" scientific knowledge about organizationsStudies approaching accounting education from a critical perspective, including how students can be initiated to critical thinkingBenefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

If you require any further information or help, please visit our Support CenterAdditional policy from the journal on the use of artificial intelligence in research In an editorial published in 2024, the editors of the journal developed the following policy that applies to submissions that rely on the use of artificial intelligence. “As co-editors, we are particularly concerned about the threat posed by artificial intelligence (AI) to the authenticity of research. We conceive of authenticity in research as an implicit claim made by the researcher that is empirically and ethically grounded. Empirical authenticity relates to the researcher’s genuine commitment to understand the world reflexively. Ethical authenticity means being original and true to oneself despite prevailing performance pressures in the researcher’s environment. Given what we know about the juggernaut of AI, we do not want Critical Perspectives on Accounting to receive submissions in which AI played a significant role in any step of the research process, except for language translation and copyediting purposes. Also, we do not want reviewers and editors-in-charge to rely in any significant way on AI to produce reviews, make editorial decisions, and write editorial letters. This is a question of authenticity.” Reference: Gendron, Y., Andrew, J., Cooper, C., and Tregidga, H. 2024. On the juggernaut of artificial intelligence in organizations, research and society.

Journal of Corporate Finance
The Journal of Corporate Finance aims to publish high quality, original manuscripts or shorter format papers in both theoretical and empirical corporate finance. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: financial structure, governance, product markets, payout, labor, innovation, risk management, financial contracting, and international finance. Papers at the intersection of corporate finance and macroeconomics, asset pricing, household, behavioral, fintech and blockchain, law, financial intermediation, or microstructure also are encouraged.The new Editorial Board is committed to a timely and constructive reviewing process and seeks to streamline the editorial process by implementing an active desk-rejection policy. We anticipate that a non-trivial fraction of papers will be rejected without a detailed reviewing process. The policy is intended to minimize the burden on reviewers as well as create a more efficient process for authors. Desk-rejected articles will NOT be refunded the submission fee. In the same spirit, we expect most papers to converge to a decision within two rounds.Editors and AEs will recuse themselves from handling submissions from authors at the same institution, current or recent past co-authors, former PhD students (in case the editor was the main advisor), former PhD advisors, close friendships, relatives, and papers that criticize or closely compete with an editor's work. Any direct or indirect financial interest also is considered a conflict of interest. If any editor or AE feel that there is likely to be a perception of a conflict of interest in relation to their handling of a submission, they will inform the Managing Editors. The above conflict of interest policy also will be applied to special issues and journal sponsored conference decisions.- ISSN: 0929-1199
