        1 - Investigating the Relationship between Conservative and Negative Skewness of Stock Returns with Emphasis Debt Maturity in the Life Cycle

        The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between conservatism and stock price crash risk with emphasis on debt maturity in the life cycle of companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange. For this purpose, the financial statements of 106 companies were collected during the period 2011-2017. Multivariate regression with combined data was used to test the hypotheses. The Givoly & Hayn criteria were used for conservatism and the negative skewness criterion was used to stock price crash risk. The findings of the first hypothesis test suggest that there is a relationship between accounting conservatism and the stock price crash risk. In other words, conservative practices will reduce the stock price crash risk. The findings of the second hypothesis test also suggest that debt maturity has a moderating role on the relationship between accounting conservatism and stock price crash risk. In the life cycle stages, the above hypotheses were confirmed in the maturity and growth stages. In other words, conservatism reduces the likelihood of bad news coming into the market, thereby reducing the stock price crash risk. Debt maturity also increases the ability of conservatism to reduce the stock price crash risk. Manuscript profile

        In firms where language tone of management in risk disclosure is conservative, more verification is required to disclose good risk news and a lower standard of verification is required to disclose bad risk news. This type of risk disclosure can reduce the likelihood of negative news accumulating in these firms and decrease the stock price crash risk. Accordingly, the purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of conservative tone in risk disclosure on the stock price crash. The research period is from 2009 to 2018 and the sample number included 167 firms listed in Tehran Stock Exchange. Panel data approach and multiple linear regression were used to test the research hypotheses. The findings show that Conservatism in Risk Disclosure(CRD) reduces the stock price crash risk by requiring asymmetric verification to disclose good and bad risk news. Also, given the high information asymmetry, the role of CRD as a limiter to managers' motivation to accumulate negative news and prevent the stock price crash increases. Manuscript profile

        3 - Disjunctivism and the Default View for Visual Experience
        Faraz Attar

        Martin argues that disjunctivism is the default view for visual experience. This disjunctivism is based upon the notion of indiscriminability: An event is a visual experience if and only if it is indiscriminable through introspection from a veridical visual experience. The argument concludes that the common kind theories, since they are committed to a substantive epistemic principle, are immodest. Thus disjunctivism, is the default view. A number of criticisms have been raised against the argument. According to the main criticism, the condition of indiscriminability is neither necessary nor sufficient condition for visual experience. I deal with the main criticism and also the others. With critically examining these and also Martin’s responses, I claim that the argument is not valid. One of my main reasons is that Martin’s responses to the main criticism aren’t clear and justified. So, until further illuminations, we cannot accept that the condition for visual experience is indiscriminability. Also I explain that the argument, if valid, only concludes that the common kind theories aren’t the default view, not that disjunctivism is the default view. In order to lead to this conclusion, there are further steps to be taken. According to one step, it should be shown that there is no other default view. I cast doubt on the legitimacy of the step. In addition, I argue that disjunctivism based upon the notion of disjunction is different from disjunctivism based upon the notion of indiscriminability. The different disjunctivism could be an alternative default view. Manuscript profile

        The purpose of this research is investigation the relationship between conservatism and new investment; In addition, this research assessed the impact of investment inefficiency on the relationship between conservatism and new investment. Conservatism is measured based on the pattern presented by Givoly and Hayn (2000). Also, over investment is considered as a proxy of investment inefficiency which is measured based on the model proposed by Biddle et al (2009). So, research population includes 216 firms listed in Tehran Securities & Exchange over the period 2012-2017 which selected through filtering method. The hypotheses analyzed through multivariable regression models based on panel data and fixed effect method. The results showed that conservatism had significant and negative impact on new investment. Also, over investment as a proxy of investment inefficiency had significant and positive impact on new investment. However, conservatism had no significant impact on the relationship between prior over investment and new investment. Manuscript profile

        Conservatism has emerged as one of the practical principles in the development of accounting standards. In recognizing profits and losses, accountants desire more validity for good news (profits) than for bad news (losses). Accordingly, conservatism is the product of asymmetry in the income statement verification. In this research, a comprehensive investigation is conducted on the impact of financial leverage and the composition of the board of directors (the board) on accounting conservatism in firms listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE). Board combination was examined using board independence criteria, board size, and CEO duality. Moreover, to measure conservatism and the effects of independent variables on it, Basu’s model (Default-Adjusted-Basu) modified by Khan and Watts (2007) was used. In this research, the impacts of variables which were expected to have an influence on the relationship between independent and dependent variables, namely firm size, financial leverage, and the price/book ratio, were controlled. A number of 72 firms listed on the TSE constituted the population of the study and were studied based on their financial statements for the period 2006-2010. To test the hypotheses, correlation test and multivariate regression analysis were used. In general, the results are indicative of a significant relationship between board independence and accounting conservatism but there is no significant relationship between CEO duality and board size with conservatism.

        Abstract Turkey is a country which is having a contradictory identity and it is conservative too. The reason is that on the one hand Sufi Islam is dominating her and on the other hand she propagates Western values and tries to be close to the West. During the past decade, Erdogan who is leading Justice and Development Party (AKP) has tried to keep satisfied the Western countries and Turkish Muslim people who constitute 98% of Turkish population. It seems that he is inclined both to West and Islam. This can be seen in his performance and decisions. For instance he abolishes the ban on Hijab in government offices and on the other hand he maintains alliances with West and Israel against Syria. It can be said that although these dual and conservative policies have not created serious problem for his government and even he has won the presidential elections, yet in the long run this paradox cannot last long because this contradictory identity and non-fulfillment of the majority of Turkey's population expectations will disappoint them and Erdogan cannot keep his hold on power for good.

          Conservatism is a political philosophy based on tradition and social stability, stressing established institutions, especially family and religion, and preferring gradual development to abrupt change. It is a modern political philosophy and belongs to modern world and the new age. Although Kalileh va Dimneh and Marzbān Nāmeh, two famous Persian texts and fabulous collections of animal-based moral tales, belong to pre-modern age and stem from a totally different paradigm, conservative concepts can still be found in them. The aim of the present article is to show the presence of the above concepts in these texts.     Manuscript profile

        One of the most important views of epistemic justification in contemporary epistemology is phenomenal conservatism. According to this view on justification, if it seems to one as if a proposition is true, one is prima‌ facie justified in believing in it; Therefore, according to those who believe in this view of justification, if it seems true to me that I got the Covid-19 vaccine today, I have justified to believe in the proposition that “I got the Covid-19 vaccine today.” Believers in view of phenomenal conservatism claim that this view is a complete theory of epistemic justification and also provides correct intuitive results in different types of beliefs. In this article, we will explain, interpret and evaluate this view in epistemic justification. We will first articulate and evaluate different perspectives about the nature of “seeming”, and then present an account of phenomenal conservatism. While interpreting and evaluating problems of this view, we come to the conclusion that this view is neither a necessary nor a sufficient condition for justification; Hence, we can argue that this view cannot be considered as an acceptable view for the epistemic justification of one’s beliefs.   Manuscript profile

        The Terrorist attacks of 9/11 brought about a Fundamental change in US foreign policy. To pinpoint this Phenomenon, American officials blamed the lack of democracy and lasting peace in depressed societies for the violence and terrorist movements. The main question of the present study is what were the American peace-building strategies from the time of George w. Bush to the era of neo-Hamiltonism, Biden tenure in Afghanistan in order to establish lasting peace, security and Expanding Democracy? The research hypothesis points out that US activism in Afghanistan to bring peace is rooted in the pursuit of trans-regional interests and the implementation of American globalization. Basically, attention to the issue and approach to peace-building in Afghanistan in the perceptual-practical apparatus of the united states in order to create a stable country in peace and democracy, a policy that somehow to keep the internal currents in Afghanistan away from relations. Has and does not pay attentions to the internal structure of Afghanistan, so the process of sustainable peace-building has not been successful and has not led to positive results. The research method is descriptive-analytical based on the concept of democratic peace/ peace-building. The findings show that white House governments from the time of neo-conservatives under Bush(son) to the era of so-called neo-hamiltonism (joe Biden) have consolidated their peace-building strategies to secure their interests in the trans-regional dimension, as well as their presence. Has always used worry-free to focus on regional competitors such as china and Russia. Manuscript profile

        Abstract Investment is known to be as one of the most important ways to expand the scope of companies’ operations and prevent them from being recessed and falling into downturn.  If the level of company’s investments is proportional to financial and operational policies, it would create value for the company and increase the stock value of the company. One of the factors affecting these two parameters, that are the level of investment and the stock value, is the conservatism principle. Therefore, this research is aimed to study the effect of conditional and unconditional conservatism on the level of future investment and stock value. In this regard, the financial data of 129 companies for a nine years period from March 20th 2008 till March 20th 2017 was used as combined data. To analyze the data, multivariate regression was used.  Research findings suggest that business entities who implement a high level of conditional conservatism, do a lower level of investment. While business entities who implement a high level of unconditional conservatism have a higher level of investment. Another finding of the research suggests that the conditional and unconditional level of conservatism amplify the impact of the company's investment on stock value. The results of this research can be explained in the view of conservative contract theory and the theory of information asymmetry.   Manuscript profile

        The main purpose of this paper is review of the relationship between conservatism and amount of earning anticipation of companies accepted in Tehran stock exchange. For quantifying the conditional conservatism, we use two measures including negative coefficient of total voluntary(non-operational) accrual items to total assets and the proportion of net income before unexpected items to market value of stockholders equity. Likewise, for quantifying the unconditional conservatism, we use two measures namely the rate of book value to market value of net assets and negative coefficient of total accrual items total assets average. Research hypothesis studied on each industries level and total industry level. The findings imply that there was no significant relationship between including negative coefficient of total voluntary(non-operational) accrual items and anticipated earning in total industry level.Also, there was a significant relationship between the proportion of net income before unexpected items to market value of stockholders equity and anticipated earning in plant and equipment, electric and ceramic tile industries; but there was not a significant relationship between them in total industry level. In addition, there was an insignificant relationship betweenthe proportionof book value to market value of net assets andanticipated earning in electric and food-beverage industries and this hypothesis corroborated in other industries and total industry level. Eventually, the results represent that the negative coefficient of total accrual items to total assets average had an insignificant relationship on anticipated earning. Manuscript profile

        In Iran, according to "the rule of the trustworthy audit firms of the stock and exchange organization(2007)", after 4 years of audit services, audit firms are not allowed to accept the position of the CPA of the listed companies. The purpose of legislators is to increase the independence of auditors, because they believe the independence of auditors will be decreased in long auditor tenure. This subject was attractive for Researchers to study the effect of auditor tenure on the accounting conservatism to know what will happen in a long tenure. We also test the effect of the auditor type(Audit Organization or other Firms) on the conservatism Index and we used the model of Givoly and Hayn(2000) to measure the conservatism. The statistical society includes the listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange 2003 to 2010. The result of the study indicated that, there is a positive significant relationship between auditor tenure and accounting conservatism, in our opinion, mandatory auditor rotation does not help to increase the accounting conservatism, and therefore we feel the necessity of the revision in the law of mandatory auditor rotation. On the other hand we found that the relationship between auditor types and accounting conservatism is not significant and it means there is no significant difference in accounting conservatism between audit organization and other firms.

        Relationship Analysis of Risk and Performance Criteria Conservative with an emphasis on the role of intellectual capital: Structural Equation ApproachAbstractConservatism is one of the characteristics of financial reporting that in the form of a limiting principle in the framework of accounting principles and concepts, plays an important role in limiting the optimistic behavior of managers in the position of information producers on the one hand and estimating the minimum income of investors and credit. Providers, on the other hand, are the most important users. The main purpose of this research is to approach structural equations in analyzing the relationship between risk and performance criteria and conservatism with emphasis on the role of intellectual capital. According to the research goal of 138 companies' financial information during the years 1390 to 1397 using structural and software analysis LISREL has tested research hypotheses. Research has shown that there is a significant relationship between risk and conservatism criteria and performance, but the company's intellectual capital cannot play a role in adjusting to the impact of conservatism and performance.Keywords: Conservatism, Performance Criteria, Risk Criteria, Intellectual Capital Manuscript profile

        Abstract This research examines the effect of auditors conservatism on Earnings Quality despite the uncertainty of economic policies in listed companies in Tehran Stock Exchange. .Conservatism of auditors was calculated and evaluated using the model of Chong et al. (2003). (Auditor Conservatism based on Basu's model (1997) and the use of the ranking of the audit institutions in accordance with the classification guidelines of the audit institutions and entities subject to Article 10 of the Trusteeship Audit Institutions Code of the Stock Exchange). Jones' modified model (1995) used to measure the earnings quality. In this regard, 150 companies from listed companies were selected for systematic elimination during 2013-2019. The research regression model was tested and tested using static effects approach using panel data . The results of the research hypothesis test showed that auditor conservatism has a positive effect and economic policy uncertainty has a negative effect on profit quality. In other words, the conservatism of auditors leads to an increase in the quality of profits and the uncertainty of economic policies leads to a decrease in the quality of corporate profits.

        Assessing the effect of moral foundations on different aspects of socio-cultural and political life is difficult because there has not been sufficient data yet. However, doubtlessly, the influence of moral factors on humans’ behaviors is definitive. Although moral priorities are not necessarily determinant, they construct a complicated system of causal factors which can be important motivating factor in long term periods. Accordingly, the present study aims at investigate the effects of moral values on citizens’ orientations towards conservatism in cultural and political domains among students of University of Isfahan using Haidt and Graham’s Moral Foundations Theory. The present study also is to compare the degree of the relative significance of moral foundations as a variable determining of each ideas of political and cultural conservatism. The results of the present study indicate that moral foundations with coefficient determination as 45% can explain the highest variance of cultural conservatism. In addition, findings of the present study indicate that only two variables of care and respecting authority are effective on political conservatism, while care morality causes the reduction in political conservatism and the variable of respecting authority causes the increase in tendency towards political conservatism Manuscript profile
