Abstract

ABSTRACT We examine the effect of managerial academic experience on tone management in the corporate annual report. We find that managerial academic experience reduces the likelihood of upward tone management. Furthermore, we find that the impact of academic experience on tone management is intensified when managers have stronger incentives to upwardly manage financial reporting tone and when the outside monitoring environment is weaker. The results hold under a variety of robustness tests. This study enriches the relevant research on executive characteristics and tone management, and the conclusion of this paper provides practical implications to improve the quality of information disclosure.

管理学术经验与语气管理:来自中国的证据

摘要本文研究了管理学术经验对公司年报语气管理的影响。我们发现，管理学术经验降低了向上语气管理的可能性。此外，我们发现，当管理者向上管理财务报告基调的动机较强、外部监督环境较弱时，学术经验对基调管理的影响会增强。结果在各种稳健性测试下都成立。本研究丰富了高管特征与语气管理的相关研究，本文的结论对提高信息披露质量具有现实意义。
