a. Deskripsi:
Fenomena terbaru dalam pengembangan Ilmu Akuntansi adalah banyak
sekali area-area tertentu yang coba didekati dengan pendekatan
Keperilakuan. Kajian-kajian di bidang judgment dan pengambilan keputusan
dalam akuntansi underlying teorinya adalah teori kognisi dan keperilakuan.
Apa yang terjadi di Akuntansi sesungguhnya adalah fenomena keperilakuan.
Matakuliah ini bertujuan untuk memberikan pemahaman kepada mahasiswa
tentang konsep dan teori keperilakuan, aplikasi konsep dan teori
keperilakuan pada akuntansi., metoda penelitian yang layak digunakan pada
penelitian keperilakuan dalam akuntansi, dan interpretasi hasil penelitian
dan implikasi praktis-nya bagi profesi akuntansi.

b. Metode Pembelajaran:
Kuliah akan diselenggarakan dengan model semi seminar. Dalam tiap
temu kelas akan dibahas teori-teori dan penelitian dalam akuntansi
keperilakuan. Agar diskusi bisa berjalan lancar dan mengena sasarannya,
mahasiswa diwajibkan aktif berpartisipasi dalam diskusi dengan
memberikan komentar, pertanyaan, terhadap topik yang sedang dibahas
(bukan sekadar bertanya). Hanya argumentasi relevan dengan pemikiran
logis yang baik dan terorganisir yang akan diberikan poin dalam
penilaian. Mahasiswa wajib membuat RMK (Ringkasan Materi Kuliah)
yang dibahas pada setiap temu kelas.
Semua artikel (hasil riset atau kasus) akan dipresentasikan oleh
mahasiswa per kelompok secara bergantian. Kelompok yang mendapat
giliran melakukan presentasi wajib mengumpulkan ringkasan artikel dan
critical review atas artikel yang dipresentasikan, sedangkan mahasiswa
lainnya wajib mengumpulkan hot line poin-poin penting dalam paper
yang dibahas.
Pada minggu ke-13 mahasiswa diwajibkan mengumpulkan sebuah
proposal penelitian di bidang akuntansi keperilakuan dengan
menggunakan metode riset eksperimen (experimental research methods) atau
metoda survei. Minggu ke 14 harus mempresentasikan proposal
penelitian yang sudah dibuat.

Contoh Critical Review (Dr. Mary Curtis, 2008)

By: your name

Summary: Provide a general, short description of the paper
General Questions:
1. Motivation: Can you easily identify the accounting question? Is it an
important and
interesting question? Will answering the research question (as
operationalized)
enhance our understanding of the identified accounting issues?
2. Theory: What framework, theory or literature underlies the study? What are
(and how
applicable are) the underlying issues addressed? Specify the relations among
variables, both conceptual and operational.
3. Method: (assess threats to validity)
a. Design
b. Task
c. Experimental procedures
d. Participants
e. Are the independent and dependent constructs measured credibly?
4. Analyses and Results: Are the results as reported, given the measures and
analyses? Data analysis method/s (emphasize the comparisons made and, to
a
lesser extent, the statistical techniques). Whats confusing?
5. Reasonableness of conclusions and acknowledgements of limitations. Do
the
conclusions follow from the design and results?
6. Overall: Consider the importance of your criticisms in terms of (1) the
magnitude and
direction of the defect on the results and conclusions of the study, and (2)
the
availability of good solutions to the discovered problem. What are the papers
strengths? Consider the contribution of the paper given its strengths and
weaknesses (not just its weaknesses)
