CALL FOR PAPERS 7th Junior Accounting Theory Conference at

Dear Colleagues and Friends, We are excited to announce the 7th Jr. Accounting Theory Conference, to be held at the University of California, San Diego. The conference will take place on Sunday August 6th, 2017, the day before the academic sessions begin at the AAA Annual Meeting. For six years, the conference has provided an opportunity to exchange research ideas and open up new paths for up and coming accounting researchers. The conference is a great venue for new working papers, and papers presented at the conference have been published in prestigious journals across disciplines. We invite submissions of working papers relevant to accounting that incorporate formal theory, including papers that implement theory-based estimation. At this time, there is no specific conference theme, although one may emerge from the submissions. Working papers at all stages of the research process are welcome. As in prior years, priority will be given to submissions from non-tenured faculty and PhD students. To submit a paper, please use the submission link available on the conference website: www.accountingtheory.org. The submission deadline is Wednesday, April 26th, 2017. We aim to announce the program at the beginning of June. We will send an official invitation shortly. Please keep in mind that attendance to the conference is by open invitation, so feel free to recirculate the invitation should you know about colleagues and students interested in attending. Due to space constraints, the conference is on a first-come basis, so we recommend that you sign up as early as possible. Please feel free to forward this call for papers to junior faculty or PhD students who might be interested. We warmly thank UCSD Rady for supporting the conference. If you have any questions, please let us know. We are looking forward to your submissions!
