張驥關鍵詞 公司舞弊
女性董事
董事會特性
股權結構
審計品質日期 2008 上傳時間 9-May-2016 11:29:06 (UTC+8) 摘要 本研究以大陸市場為研究對象,希望探討女性董事之參與與公司舞弊之關聯性,並參考過去文獻,一併討論董事會特性、公司股權結構與審計人員品質與公司舞弊之關聯性。實證結果發現,在考慮中國大陸各省區市場發展程度之差異後,女性董事之參與可以降低公司舞弊發生之可能性;同時也發現董事會特性(外部董事之比例和董事長是否兼任總經理)與公司股權結構(國有股比例、法人持股比例、流通股比例、是否存在外國股東和公司最大股東持股比例)皆與公司舞弊之發生有顯著關連性存在。
My study examines whether female directors’ participation in boardroom have an effect on corporate financial fraud in China. Besides, referring to the past studies, it also examine whether boardroom characteristics, ownership structure and auditors’ quality have an effect on corporate financial fraud. The data come from CSMAR database.The results from original analysis show that female directors’ participation does not have an effect on corporate financial fraud. But after considering the regional market development differences between the provinces, female directors’ participation in boardroom will deter fraud. The results also demonstrate that boardroom characteristics and ownership structure are important in explaining fraud.參考文獻 中文部分中華民國審計準則公報第四十三號,財團法人中華民國會計研究發展基金會,九十五年九月一日發布。王嘉穎,1999,我國上市公司財務危機與監理因素之關聯性研究-實質所有權之探討,國立台灣大學會計研究所碩士論文。李文娟,1998,領導型態、工作滿意度與工作績效相關之個案實證研究,國立中央大學人力資源管理研究所碩士論文。李放與蘇麗麗,2007,女性性別優勢在管理中的作用,中華女子學院山東分院學報,2007年第3期:15-18。李豔征,2007,新時期的女性領導者與「雙性管理」,職業圈,第75期:18-19。林勇與鄧曼姿,2007,公司治理中的性別差異研究—基於廣東省發達地區的問卷調查,華南師範大學學報(社會科學版),2007年第六期:33-42。林育雅,1994,上市公司董事會特性與盈餘操縱現象之研究,國立台灣大學會計研究所碩士論文。金燕與喬杰,2007,參與管理:公共部門女性職業生涯發展的內在動力,人才資源開發,第11期:46-47。馬秀如,2006,會計師揭發舞弊之責任,會計研究月刊,第253期:44-61。陳雅琪,2007,董事會結構、家族控制持股、集團企業與財務報表舞弊之關聯性研究,國立成功大學會計研究所碩士論文。陳信銘,2005,財務報表舞弊之研究:公司治理之觀點,朝陽科技大學會計研究所碩士論文。張志裕,2004,董事會特性、資訊揭露與經營績效之關聯性研究,中原大學企業管理研究所碩士論文。康宛竹,2007,中國上市公司女性高層任職狀況調查研究,婦女研究論叢,第81期:23-29。郭瑾瑜,1996,台灣女性主管管理風格、人際關係、決策型態、領導行為與成就動機之研究,國立成功大學企業管理研究所碩士論文。趙亦珍,2000,女性創業家性別角色與創業行為之研究,國立中山大學人力資源管理研究所碩士論文。英文部分Adler, N.
