Tiivistelmä: | This article suggest that transparent bias in management disclosures may result from managers processing information in a heuristic, as distinct from Bayesian, fashion when they face head-to-head competition. It is predicted that transparent bias in disclosures is positively related to the extent of head-to-head competition. Moreover, it is shown that when disclosure is dicretionary, managers who exhibit viable, heuristic behaviour are less likely to disclose than managers who exhibit Bayesian behaviour. |
