Abstract Over the last decade, a massive body of research has been devoted to uncovering human dishonesty.

Policy makers use several international indices that characterize countries according to the quality of their institutions. However, no effort has been made study how honesty citizens varies across countries. This paper explores among 16 with 1440 participants.

Abstract We analyze empirically the usefulness of combining accounting and auditing data in order to predict corporate financial distress. Concretely, we examine whether audit report information incrementally predicts distress over a traditional model: Altman's Z ‐Score model.

From dataset 1,821 Spanish distressed...

Finding procedures that may guarantee high levels of validity is one the big challenges in methods psychology nowadays. In present study, we show Delphi method as a technique to study content. This shows an important advantage regarding traditional expert methods: it flexible and dynamic its application, allowing presence feedback between participants.

Despite the number of studies on bankruptcy prediction using financial ratios, very little is known about how external audit information can contribute to anticipating distress.

However, could a common space, the presence of colleagues affect cheating? Here, we examine how familiar-peer influence, supervision and social incentives worker performance behavior. First, show peers is effective mechanism constrain honest/dishonest compared work (experiment 1). Second, demonstrate mere suspicion dishonesty from another...
Experimental studies of dishonesty usually rely on population-level analyses, which compare the distribution claimed rewards in an unsupervised, self-administered lottery (e.g., tossing a coin) with expected statistics 50/50 chance winning). Here, we provide paradigm that measures at individual level and identifies new profiles specific theoretical interpretations. We found among dishonest participants, (a) some did not bother implementing all, (b) implemented but lied about outcome, (c)...
