چکیده

ارزیابی خطر تحریف، یکی از اقدامات حسابرسان برای کسب اطمینان معقول از نبود تحریف صورت­های مالی است. این ارزیابی، نیازمند تبعیت از معیارهای تردید حرفه­ای است.  تردید حرفه­ای، نگرشی است که همیشه همه چیز را مورد سوال قرار می­دهد و به طور انتقادی شواهد حسابرسی را مورد ارزیابی قرار می­دهد. هدف پژوهش حاضر بررسی اثر تردید حرفه­ای بر ارزیابی خطر تحریف با اهمیت است. قلمرو زمانی پژوهش سال 1399، نمونه انتخابی بر مبنای فرمول کوکران تعداد 384 نفر و جامعه آماری این پژوهش، حسابرسان شاغل در موسسات دولتی و خصوصی است. داده­های جمع­آوری شده از طریق پرسشنامه و سناریو، با بکارگیری روش معادلات ساختاری مورد تجزیه و تحلیل قرار گرفت. نتایج پژوهش نشان می­دهد که تردید حرفه­ای بر ارزیابی خطر تحریف با اهمیت تاثیر مثبت دارد. همچنین فشار بودجه زمانی بر رابطه بین تردید حرفه­ای و ارزیابی خطر تحریف، تاثیر منفی و اثر تجربه (متغیر فردی) بر رابطه بین تردید حرفه­ای و ارزیابی خطر تحریف با اهمیت رد شد. حسابرسان برای تشخیص موارد تقلب و تحریف، ملزم به اعمال حد معقولی از تردید حرفه ای هستند؛ زیرا وقتی حسابرس دارای سطح پایینی از تردید حرفه ای باشد، تمایل دارد علائم تقلب و تحریف را نادیده بگیرد. احتمال کشف موارد تحریف برای حسابرسان با سطح تردید حرفه­ای بالاتر بیشتر است، چراکه آنها به راحتی شواهد را نپذیرفته و چه از جنبه کمی و چه از نظر کیفی بطور دقیق­تری به بررسی شواهد و اطلاعات حسابداری می­پردازند.

چکیده [English]

Assessing the risk of misstatement is one of the auditors' actions to obtain reasonable assurance of the absence of misstatement of financial statements. This evaluation requires compliance with the criteria of professional skepticism. Professional skepticism is an attitude that always questions everything and critically evaluates audit evidence. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the effect of professional skepticism on the assessment of the risk of material distortion. The time domain of the research is 2019, the selected sample based on the Cochran formula is 384 people and the statistical population of this research is auditors working in public and private institutions. The data collected through questionnaires and scenarios were analyzed using the structural equation method. The results of the research show that professional skepticism has a positive effect on the assessment of the risk of significant distortion. Also, time budget pressure on the relationship between professional skepticism and distortion risk assessment, negative impact and effect of experience (individual variable) on the relationship between professional skepticism and distortion risk assessment were significantly rejected. Auditors are required to exercise a reasonable degree of professional skepticism to detect fraud and misstatement; because when the auditor has a low level of professional skepticism, he tends to ignore the signs of fraud and misstatement. The probability of discovering distortions is higher for auditors with a higher level of professional skepticism, because they do not accept the evidence easily and examine the accounting evidence and information more carefully, both quantitatively and qualitatively.
