PhD Program
2021B01 - Audit technologies and auditor judgment (PhD project X. Li)
The overall aim of this study is to examine the effects of conveying Audit Data Analytic (ADA) calibration (explicit conveyance versus no conveyance) and the framing of such conveyance (hit rates versus false positive rates) on auditor skepticism.
2020B07 - The institutional context in and conditions under which auditors deliver quality (PhD project T. Bosman)
The goal of this study is not to provide a literature study on the topic, but rather to help practitioners, policy makers, researchers, and regulators to identify and understand the available Audit Quality measures, information sources and potentially improve these sources.
2020B06 - Virtual audit teamwork: Working, learning, and delivering high audit quality virtually (PhD project I. Wiertz)
The overall aim of this proposal is to assess how virtual engagement teams can deliver high-quality audits virtually.
2020B03 - Learning and performing in audit firms: The role of the organizational context (PhD project C. Peters)
The first study investigates how an organizational context in which auditor-artificial intelligence interactions are prevalent affects auditors’ cognitive processing and subsequently the degree of professional skepticism exercised by auditors.

This project studies the interplay among management control mechanisms and the effect of their joint use on how professional and commercial objectives are managed in auditing firms.
2019F02 - The institutional context in and conditions under which auditors deliver quality (PhD program: University of Amsterdam)
The goal of this study is not to provide a literature study on the topic, but rather to help practitioners, policy makers, researchers, and regulators to identify and understand the available Audit Quality measures, information sources and potentially improve these sources.
