European Network on Experimental Accounting Research Doctoral Colloquium and Conference
Fien Rubben, Melissa Verniest and Dwight Waeye participated in the 2024 ENEAR Conference. It was a very pleasant experience where they got to meet many international scholars with shared research interests. They can't wait for the next ENEAR conference in the summer of 2026.
- Melissa Verniest participated in the doctoral colloquium and presented her working paper titled "How performance-based prosocial incentives affect employees' creative performance", co-authored with Sophie Maussen, on the conference. The discussion by Ajanee Ranasinghe sparked new insights which will certainly enhance the quality of the paper.
- Dwight Waeye participated in the doctoral colloquium as well and presented his working paper titled "Aligning Whistleblowers’ Mixed Motives Through Social Norm Perceptions: The Role of Financial Incentives and Systematic Audits", co-authored with Sophie Maussen, on the conference. The discussion by Jeremiah Bentley will certainly improve the quality of the paper.
- Furthermore, Sophie Maussen, Melissa Verniest and Dwight Waeye's research proposal on collusive behavior among managers was presented on the conference and resulted in a lively discussion with the audience. The authors are very grateful for the opportunity they received to present this research proposal as well the helpful feedback.
