Mostafa Ghannad Mohammad Arabmazar Yazdi Mohammad Hossein Safarzadeh Bandari Reza HesarZadehAbstractObjective: The advancement of postgraduate education and the substantial rise in the publication of papers in all fields of knowledge, particularly in the field of accounting, require closer attention to the current publication situation of scholarly papers. Stu MoreAbstractObjective: The advancement of postgraduate education and the substantial rise in the publication of papers in all fields of knowledge, particularly in the field of accounting, require closer attention to the current publication situation of scholarly papers. Studying the research trend through the topic analysis of papers published in domestic scholarly journals, which is an example of the scientific map of a field, is of outstanding importance for organizations, researchers, and science policymakers. Therefore, the present study is aimed at analyzing the papers published in the journals approved by the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology in the field of accounting from the first issue published after receiving scientific rank until the end of 2020 employing text mining techniques.Methods: Out of 4924 papers published in 20 accounting journals over three decades, 4201 papers whose English abstracts were available on the websites of journals and databases were selected as the sample and used for subject classification.To identify the most important words used in the papers, TF-IDF weighting algorithm was used, and the LDA topic modeling technique was implemented to extract topics. Moreover, the Python programming language was employed to apply text mining algorithms.Results: The research findings indicate that capital market (29%), financial accounting (20%), corporate governance (10%), financial reporting and corporate social responsibility (9%), management accounting (9%), auditing (8%), finance and investment (7%), public sector accounting (3%), accounting education and research (3%), banking and information systems (2%) are respectively the most important research areas in Iranian accounting journals.Reviewing the publication trend of papers in each of the popular research areas suggests that the topics of public sector accounting, auditing, financial reporting and corporate social responsibility, management accounting, banking and information systems, and accounting education and research follow a growing publication trend. In contrast, the topics of financial accounting, capital market, and finance and investment show a downward publication trend, and the topic of corporate governance continues a steady publication trend.Conclusion: The results reveal that some research areas such as accounting information systems, public sector accounting, and accounting education and research, compared to other research areas, have been given less attention since not many attempts have been made to publish papers in these areas; thus, it is suggested that scholars pay more careful attention to journals’ science and publishing policies.

In order to measure the dividends adjustment speed, which is a benchmark for dividend smoothing, the rolling window regressions based on the Lintner model was used Dijang et al and Faulkender and Wang method is applied for measuring the marginal value of cash and unused debt capacity, which is an indicator for measuring financial flexibility. According to the research constraints, 105 companies listed in Tehran Stock Exchange during the period of 2011-2020 have been investigated. The Research's findings show that the marginal value of cash and unused debt capacity does not have a significant effect on the dividend’s adjustment speed. Also, the Liquidity shock has no effect on the relationship between the marginal value of cash and unused debt capacity on the dividend’s adjustment speed. According to the results, in justifying the positive relationship between the Marginal Value of Cash and the Dividends adjustment speed, it can be said that any Firm with a higher Financial Flexibility would face a lower overall risk and improve managers' performance when using Growth and investment opportunities, and ultimately, their Dividend Smoothing is higher. Also, in justifying the negative relationship between Unused Debt Capacity and the Dividends adjustment speed, it can be said that any Firm with a higher Unused Debt Capacity has a lower Dividend Smoothing.

In calendar irregularities, time is the factor that affects the capital market. Such effects are called calendar effects. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to identify and analyze the calendar effect of the holy month of Ramadan on the most important features of the capital market. The research method is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-survey based on the nature and research method. The statistical population of this study includes university professors of accounting, analysts and trading experts in the Iranian capital market. In this study, using the research background and referring to eight experts and interviewing them, 6 indicators were identified as important features of the capital market that can be affected by the calendar effect of the holy month of Ramadan. Then, using 14 questionnaires, experts were asked to determine the causal relationships of these indicators. Finally, in order to explore the network of cause and effect relationships, to determine the degree of effectiveness and impact of each of the indicators and their prioritization, fuzzy hierarchical analysis, fuzzy dimtel approach and fuzzy TOPSIS were used. According to the results, capital risk is the most important indicator. This result indicates that this indicator is subject to severe changes during the holy month of Ramadan and it is necessary to pay attention to it. Then the indicators of trading volume, unsystematic risk, share return, liquidity risk and adjusted beta are important, respectively. Also, trading volume was recognized as the most effective indicator. Therefore, trading volume has a greater impact on other indicators. Also, non-systematic risk was identified as the most effective indicator. Manuscript profile
