这项研究的目的是检验美国式的鼓励告密的监管干预如果移植到另一个有着截然不同的历史文化背景和制度体系的国家,是否会立即有效。共有98名美国会计师和84名德国会计师参加了一项与一起财务报表欺诈案有关的实验室实验。提供反报复保护和对举报人的金钱奖励被操纵,参与者被要求承担内部审计员的角色。我们假设并发现,提供反报复保护和金钱奖励鼓励美国会计师揭发。相比之下,在德国会计师中,他们的国家历史上对举报人怀有恐惧和不信任,美国式的监管干预效果较差。总而言之,我们的发现为路径依赖理论提供了强有力的支持,表明在没有适当考虑一个国家的独特历史和文化的情况下,不应统一移植举报人监管。
The purpose of this study is to examine whether United States (U.S.)-style regulatory intervention to encourage whistle-blowing can be immediately effective if transplanted into another country with a distinctly different historical cultural background and institutional system. A total of 98 U.S. and 84 German accountants participated in a laboratory experiment relating to a case of financial statement fraud. The provision of anti-retaliation protection and monetary rewards for whistle-blowing were manipulated and participants were asked to assume the role of an internal auditor. We hypothesize and find that the provision of anti-retaliation protection and monetary rewards encourage U.S. accountants to blow the whistle. In contrast, among German accountants, where their country features a historical fear and distrust of whistle-blowers, U.S.-style regulatory interventions are less effective. Together, our findings provide strong support for the theory of path-dependence, suggesting that whistle-blowing regulation should not be uniformly transplanted without due consideration of the unique history and culture of a country.
