A model of auditor control evaluation decision processes

Article Abstract:

Auditors use assumptions based on prior experience to make decisions in internal control evaluation tasks. Auditors use past cases to define expectations of a task. Former cases also form a pattern aiding in solutions. In addition, previous experience reminds them of failures and they also use it to explain or justify an action.

Findings do not provide information on the decision making quality of the programming models.
