A comparison of perceived importance of factors that have an impact on audit effectiveness in higher education institutions

The evaluation of perception of importance of factors which have an impact on audit effectiveness is relevant to the entire internal auditing profession, because communication of its Professional Standards to those higher in the organization is necessary for the audit function to be carried out effectively. A study was designed to determine if perceptions of relative importance of various audit related factors differ between higher education institution Audit Directors and their immediate supervisors. In addition, data was analyzed to identify differences in perceptions of Audit Directors and differences of perceptions of their immediate supervisors in categories grouped by the Carnegie Foundation higher education institutional classifications.
