About the Book

Accounting practices, concerns about ethical behavior, and the career-related choices accountants have to make from organizational challenges were addressed in this study by survey method. These concerns and challenges in turn have their social, economic, cultural, technological, and political implications. The variables were studied using Pearson's correlation coefficient and augmented by Fisher's z scores. Varying life challenges were more likely to influence attitudes than job satisfaction. Hence, educational awareness forums when geared towards conflict resolutions were more likely to foster social change processes than professional activities.
