I am looking for an individual who is willing to guide me in my pursuit to publish my research in Behavioral Accounting. My study looks into the phenomenon of First Year Shock (FYS) and how it affects firm dynamics and the personal motivation of the new hire in industry. I completed the orignal study in my dissertation and presented the results at the GAAE Annual Meeting in February where it was positively received. I am now in the proocess of performing a 2 year update with the same population to confirm my original results. I believe I will be successful and I want to publish those results; however, I have never published an article in the top journals and I do not have anyone at my organization who can mentor me in the process. Thus, I need guidance and I'm turning to my AAA brethren to set me on the right path and assist with the editing process.
I appreciate this AAA community and look forward to the opportunity of adding value to the knowledge base. I will be glad to send more information to anyone interested.
Thank you,
Dr. Tim Naddy, CPA, CFE

Just a general question related to a noticable absence of opportunities as it relates to Resident Scholar positions in industry. I have always viewed the Resident Scholar as one who has the ideal academic life: one foot in teaching and research helping build the knowledge base and the other foot in industry where problems are defined and consulted upon using said research. However, not many companies seem to be interested in this dynamic relationship any longer.
So, my question is: Has the Resident Scholar position been phased out or are companies being more selective with whom they bring into their organization?
If Resident Scholar positions do exist, then where do I go to find them?
