I conduct research on firm’s strategic reporting choices. Strategic reporting includes voluntary disclosure and earnings management. I provide new insights by considering how behavioral biases affect reporting choice. For example, do overconfident managers make more voluntary disclosures?
I also conduct research on how accounting measures should be used in contracts. I am currently researching how to combine accounting- and equity-based compensation as well as how to rank performance measures when people disagree.
I am involved in teaching at our master’s program in auditing and our master’s program in management accounting and control. In these programs I teach accounting theory and IFRS standards.
In addition to this, I supervise students on bachelor, master and phd level.
