“…Finally, timeliness refers to the frequency and speed of reporting (e.g., short or long run). Several authors have extended the four information characteristics to describe accounting systems in terms of MIS sophistication (Choe, 1996;Ghorab, 1997;Naranjo-Gil, 2004). MIS sophistication refers to a range of information available for managers, which is perceived as being useful.…”

“…Managers had to state the extent to which they perceived that their hospital's MIS provided each of the dimensions identified. We treated all information characteristics as complementary to construct the variable sophistication of MIS design by averaging the scores for all items (Naranjo-Gil, 2004). The Cronbach alpha for the overall scale was 0.782, exceeding the recommended minimum level (Nunally, 1978).…”

“…In this context, a greater level of fit between the context and the structure leads to better organizational performance (Al-Omiri and Drury, 2007). Some studies opt for this view, which tests the interaction between the contingency factors, the accounting information system and the performance (Chong, 1996;Naranjo-Gil, 2004;Boulianne, 2007). These studies suggest that there is an interaction between the accounting information system and the factors that influence it.…”

“…These variables are classified into two groups: organizational variables and individual variables. The organizational variables are related to the organizational structure (Chenhall and Morris, 1986;Gerdin, 2005), the task uncertainty (Chong, 1996), the organizational strategy (Naranjo-Gil, 2004) and the budgetary participation (Tsui, 2001). The individual variables refer to the factors related to some individual characteristics that may have effects on accounting information systems.…”
