An EconoTimes perspective

Michele Frank

Associate Professor of Accountancy, Miami University

Associate Professor of Accountancy, Miami University Prior to obtaining my PhD at the University of Pittsburgh, I spent 11 years in public accounting. When I left practice, I was a senior manager in Ernst & Young's transaction tax advisory group. My research interests combine my work experience and my academic training. I am primarily interested in using psychological theory to better understand the judgment and decision making of auditors and tax professionals. My research examines how institutional and environmental factors may bias accounting professionals' judgments, and identifies interventions to mitigate these biases. I am currently an Assistant Professor at Miami University.
