Theoretical reflections on the use of students as surrogate subjects in behavioral experimentation
Advances in Accounting Behavioral Research
20 Dec 2000
Abstract
Heavy reliance on college students as surrogate experimental subjects has historically generated a great deal of controversy. Interestingly, despite its rudimentary importance to behavioral experimentation, recent dialogues on the issue are curiously scarce. This essay seeks to re-open a critical dialogue on the subject by reflecting on three theoretical or methodological issues central to the historical strife surrounding experimental subject surrogation.
