The objective of the paper is to present a proposal concerning the scope and structure of information made available to external users about various aspects of business entities' performance, as well as to ascertain if the largest Polish listed companies disclose comprehensive and balanced information about their performance. Research has revealed that such information is published on a very limited scale.

Z przeprowadzonego badania wynika, że zakres publikacji przez dwadzieścia największych spółek warszawskiej Giełdy Papierów Wartościowych wszechstronnej i zintegrowanej informacji o dokonaniach w różnych aspektach jest bardzo ograniczony.

Zgodnie z teorią J. Hollanda dotyczącą struktury preferencji i zainteresowań zawodowych, wyróżnia się sześć podstawowych (czystych) typów osobowości zawodowej: realistyczny, badawczy, społeczny, artystyczny, przedsiębiorczy i konwencjonalny. Księgowi są w tej klasyfikacji zaliczani do typu konwencjonalnego, preferującego wykonywanie rutynowych czynności według ściśle narzuconych z góry i niezmiennych reguł, charakteryzującego się skrupulatnością, sumiennością, systematycznością, ale także małą wyobraźnią i brakiem elastyczności. Do niedawna osoba o takiej charakterystyce rzeczywiście odpowiadała specyfice pracy księgowego. Jednak pod wpływem Międzynarodowych Standardów Sprawozdawczości Finansowej (MSSF), które są obecnie podstawą sprawozdawczości finansowej w Polsce, Europie i niemal na całym świecie, wymagania wobec osób pracujących w dziedzinie rachunkowości zmieniły się diametralnie. W nowych warunkach zaklasyfikowanie księgowego do zawodów konwencjonalnych jest błędne. Księgowy powinien być raczej typem przedsiębiorczym. W tym zawodzie będą ponadto bardzo przydatne niektóre predyspozycje typu badawczego, a nawet artystycznego. Postulowane w artykule zaprzestanie zaliczania księgowych do zawodów konwencjonalnych ma znaczenie nie tylko teoriopoznawcze, ale także praktyczne.

Pursuant to J. Holand’s theory on the structure of professional preferences and interest, there are six basic (pure) types of professional personality. In this classification, accountants are considered as a conventional type. Until recently, a person so characterized did indeed correspond with the specifics of an accountant’s tasks. However, under the influence of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), which currently constitute the foundation of financial accounting in Poland, Europe, and in almost all other countries around the world, that which is expected of anyone in the field of accounting has changed diametrically. Subject to such circumstances, the classification of the profession of accountant as being conventional is a misconception. Accountants now need to be enterprising. Furthermore, investigative or even artistic predispositions may now prove useful in this profession. Breaking with the tradition of considering accounting a conventional profession as postulated in this article is important not only for theoretical reasons, but also for practical ones.

Purpose: The article presents the results of research on the frequency and content (varieties) of the stereotype that the accounting profession is a job for women. The research concerns Poland, a country with a unique level of feminisation of the accounting profession. Methodology/approach: To formulate hypotheses about the content (varieties) of the stereotype concerning the feminine character of accounting that exists in Poland, several mainly qualitative studies were carried out. As a result, four stereotypes were identified (i.e. different beliefs about why accounting is a profession for women and not for men). The hypotheses were tested using a survey of a representative group of Polish secondary school students (almost 1,200 respondents). Findings: The belief that the accounting profession is for women and not for men is expressed by one in six secondary school students, more often by men. Two stereotypes are particu-larly common: 1) that accounting is simply for women (without any specific justifica-tion), 2) that the most important aspects in this profession are accuracy, patience, meticulousness, the ability to focus on details, and other similar qualities usually attributed to women. Originality/value: For the first time in Poland (and probably in other East European countries with feminized accounting profession), the article provides new and up-to-date knowledge on the gender perception of the accounting profession and the stereotypes about this job which may be a significant driving force in sustaining gender segregation in this profession.

Purpose: To demonstrate the rationale for using psychometric tests in accounting research and show the spectrum of possibilities for such research in the context of skepticism towards them in Polish academia. Methodology/approach: Deduction and a scoping literature review. Findings: We confirm that personality traits and states of the human mind affect the accounting process, and psychometrics is a field with strong theoretical foundations and well-developed empirical tools. This means that the use of psychometric tests in accounting research indisputably makes sense. Thereby, the skepticism towards psychometric research in accounting in Polish academic accounting society is questioned. Originality/value: We conducted an extensive review of the accounting research that used psychometric tests. We demonstrate the rationale for the use of psychometric testing in accounting.

The aim of this article is to present the results of a study on the convergence of financial accounting and management accounting in companies operating in Poland against the background of international solutions. The survey, carried out in 2017, was used to collect data. Based on the questionnaire returned by 40 companies, it was found that the level of convergence of financial accounting and management accounting in Polish enterprises is moderate. The number of worldwide studies on the convergence of accounting is very limited, and in Poland they are quite unique. For this reason, the study presented in this article is relevant both for science and the practice of accounting.
