Recent trends in academic research have resulted in longer journal articles and a substantial increase in the length of the academic review process. In 2024, AJPT initiated a Call for shorter papers, resulting in 114 submissions. This is now a second Call for shorter papers that also accommodates (but is not limited to) replications and extensions that generate new insights.
The Call encompasses two general types of high-quality submissions: (1) papers that typically would be standard-length but that intentionally have been shortened to satisfy the requirements of the Call; (2) papers targeting issues that are timely and/or particularly important to the auditing profession that may have a narrower scope and contribution. All research methodologies and auditing topics are welcome.
Submissions should be approximately 20 pages of text (roughly 5,000 words) exclusive of references, appendices, and tables. Submissions should include no more than five or six tables. In most instances, the greatest adjustment relative to a standard-length paper is likely to be in the background and empirical sections. Despite the reduced length, submissions must demonstrate sufficient rigor.
