“…These individuals can be argued to be leading scholars in their respective fields and therefore the number of author self-citations may well be justified. There were also numerous articles with no author self-citations with AAAJ having four (Agyemang, 2010;Baker, 2010b;Cordery et al, 2010;Orij, 2010), AOS eight (Bezemer, 2010;Bol and Moers, 2010;Jørgensen and Messner, 2010;Koch and Schmidt, 2010;Mundy, 2010;Norman et al, 2010;O'Regan, 2010), and CPA having ten (Asenova and Beck, 2010;Bessire and Onnée, 2010;Christopher, 2010;Everett and Friesen, 2010;James, 2010b;Killian, 2010;Marriott, 2010;Mete et al, 2010;Noël et al, 2010). Thus AAAJ, AOS and CPA show incidences of high and no author self-citations in line with the observations of Glänzel et al (2004).…”

“…Similarly, AAAJ articles by Merino et al (2010), Lapsley and Giordano (2010) and Samkin and Schneider (2010) have nine sections each. While CPA had the most articles with fewer sections it also holds the distinction of having the most articles with numerous sections (equal with AOS), with three articles having ten sections (Arnaboldi and Azzone, 2010;Haynes, 2010;Mete et al, 2010) and four articles having nine (Christopher, 2010;Killian, 2010;Lehman, 2010;Roslender and Hart, 2010).…”

Acc Auditing Accountability J

Purpose: To examine the construction of articles published in three highly ranked interdisciplinary accounting journals. Design/methodology/approach: We base our analysis on articles published during 2010 in Accounting, Auditing and Accountability Journal (AAAJ), Accounting, Organizations and Society (AOS) and Critical Perspectives on Accounting (CPA). In doing so, we develop a framework and examine characteristics of the published articles, including the prose. Findings: Based on the construction of accounting academic articles in the highly ranked interdisciplinary journals, we introduce a simplified concept of the five distinct major parts of an article. We also make some taken-for-granted aspects of article construction explicit and we conclude that alternatives, if used effectively, can add to the quality of an article. Finally, we conclude with a discussion of, and a reflection on, how the taken-for-granted rules of academic publishing can be challenged. Research limitations/implications:This article is limited by the authors' own analysis and interpretations of AAAJ, AOS and CPA articles published during 2010. Originality/value: As far as can be ascertained, we are the first to examine the construction of research articles published in high ranking interdisciplinary accounting journals. The paper can assist emerging scholars in the process of planning and writing their own articles. For seasoned researchers, our insights may serve to reaffirm or help further develop their approach. The paper also contributes to the ongoing debate around the pressure to publish, the measurement of publications, and the difficulties of getting published.Key words: Academic publishing; writing; research; article attributes Acknowledgements:We would like to thank the many people who have given us feedback during the development of this paper.

“…The complexity of the business environment and the ISSN 2157-6068 2015 nexus of relationships between modern corporations and various stakeholders require a shift of corporate strategies towards social responsible activities (Christopher, 2010). The sport recreation sector is not an exemption within this framework and even more firms within the sport industry are embracing a socially responsible agenda on their day-to-day operations (Ioakimidis, 2006).…”

“…Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has received increased attention from academics, executives and international organizations (International Organization for Standardization, 2009) over the last decades and the reason for this interest is attributed to the wider influencing forces impacting on the operation of the organizations (Galbreath, 2009;Christopher, 2010). According to Waddock et al (2002), every firm regardless of the business sector has some primary stakeholders (employees and customers) and secondary stakeholders (communities, local governments) which both assert increased pressure to the firms as arising out of a growing concern for human rights, labor standards and environmental concerns.…”

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has evolved as a significant strategic issue for modern corporations and received increased attention by researchers internationally. The scope of this study is to present a comprehensive review of the studies examining the impact of certain dimensions of corporate social responsibility (CSR) on the value of firms operating within the idiosyncratic sport recreation sector. The paper identifies four key dimensions of CSR that sport recreation firms must target in order to improve their image, community connections and bottom line financial numbers. These dimensions are the connections with the local communities, the protection of natural environment, their product-service quality and their employee's satisfaction and retention. The improvement or significant involvement on behalf of sport recreation firms within these sectors can provide significant competitive advantages and enhance corporate value. Useful policy implications are also provided within the paper.

“…A Stewardship reconhece que o ambiente impacta a organização, e que por isso deve existir flexibilidade na determinação da intensidade dos mecanismos de governança para que o resultado sobre o comportamento do gestor seja eficaz (CHRISTOPHER, 2010). O gestor na posição de trade-off, entre as suas necessidades pessoais e os objetivos da empresa, acredita que trabalhando na direção da organização acabará conseguindo que suas necessidades pessoais não financeiras sejam atendidas.…”
