| Research Abstract |
Important audit judgments including risk assessment may be impacted by the approach taken to assess risk and to interpret audit evidence. This experimental study examines whether auditors' risk assessments are influenced by the risk assessment approach (belief-based versus probability-based) and by assertion framing (positive versus negative form). Four measures of risk of material misstatement are compared. Both risk assessment approach and assertion framing effects on the auditors' risk assessments are observed.
