This paper outlines the purpose of judgment and decision making research in auditing. It examines the following areas of this research: policy capturing; heuristics and biases; information search, hypothesis generation and protocol analysis; knowledge and memory; group decision making; decision aids; and environmental and motivational issues. For each of these issues I outline the key research issues that have been addressed, the research methods used, a summary of past research and potential future research.
