Abstract
Many organizations are moving toward a more open, transparent working environment. However, a concurrent trend toward remote work in organizations could moderate the effect of this move toward organizational openness by reducing organizational identification. This study investigates the joint effect of organizational identification and reporting environment openness on managerial reporting behavior. Using an experiment, we find that weak versus strong organizational identification leads to greater slack creation in an open reporting environment, but this effect attenuates in a closed reporting environment. By speaking to the joint effect of internal reporting environment openness and organizational identification, this study contributes to our understanding of the theoretical drivers of misreporting and how they interact with concurrent trends in practice.

期刊介绍：
The mission of the Journal of Management Accounting Research (JMAR) is to advance the theory and practice of management accounting through publication of high-quality applied and theoretical research, using any well-executed research method. JMAR serves the global community of scholars and practitioners whose work impacts or is informed by the role that accounting information plays in decision-making and performance measurement within organizations. Settings may include profit and not-for profit organizations, service, retail and manufacturing organizations and domestic, foreign, and multinational firms. JMAR furthermore seeks to advance an understanding of management accounting in its broader context, such as issues related to the interface between internal and external reporting or taxation. New theories, topical areas, and research methods, as well as original research with novel implications to improve practice and disseminate the best managerial accounting practices are encouraged.
