“…Ethical behaviour refers to the right or wrong conduct of individuals in organisations, business or society (Crane & Matton, 2007). Previous research suggests that the public has negative perception of accountants' ethical behaviour following the scandals of major accounting firms in the US and Europe such as Enron, Stanford International Bank, Satyam Scandal, WorldCom, Pamalat as well as other local companies (Byrne & Willis, 2005).…”

This study principally investigates job-related and personality factors that determine Ghanaian accounting students' intentions to pursue careers in accounting. It draws on a rich body of existing literature to develop a research model. Primary data were collected from a cross-sectional survey of 516 final year accounting students in a Ghanaian public university. Data were analysed using SmartPLS 2.0 to conduct Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). The results show that five factors are key determinants of accounting students' intentions to pursue accounting careers. Among the significant predictors, feelings about accounting profession made the greatest influence on career intentions, followed by accountants' reputation, job requirements, job outcomes and self-efficacy. Two factors, negative perception of ethical behaviour of accountants and accounting knowledge did not contribute significantly to predicting students' career intentions in the research context. Finally, the results show that stronger intention to pursue accounting career influences accounting students' recommendation of accounting careers to others. This study contributes to filling the dearth of empirical research in developing countries in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) on career-choice predictors of accounting students' career intentions and its behavioural consequence. Theoretical, managerial and educational policy implications of this study are discussed.
