Leadership Climate and the Use of Accounting Data in Performance Evaluation.

Hopwood, Anthony G.·1974·The Accounting Review

Abstract

This article presents a study on the leadership climate and the use of accounting data in performance evaluation in the U.S. An evidence allowed the initial distinctions which were made among the three styles of using accounting data in performance evaluation to be placed in a wider managerial perspective. For the final impact of an accounting system on managerial behavior has been shown to depend on its interaction with the forms of social and self-controls which are reflected within the various leadership climates and the personal motives and defenses which they activate.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
