In this paper, the effect of comprehensive performance measurement systems (PMS) on managerial performance is indirect through mediating variables of role clarity and psychological empowerment, and the results indicate that comprehensive PMS influences managers' cognition and motivation, which, in turn, influence managerial performance.
Abstract
This study examines how comprehensive performance measurement systems (PMS) affect managerial performance. It is proposed that the effect of comprehensive PMS on managerial performance is indirect through the mediating variables of role clarity and psychological empowerment. Data collected from a survey of 83 strategic business unit managers are used to test the model. Results from a structural model tested using Partial Least Squares regression indicate that comprehensive PMS is indirectly related to managerial performance through the intervening variables of role clarity and psychological empowerment. This result highlights the role of cognitive and motivational mechanisms in explaining the effect of management accounting systems on managerial performance. In particular, the results indicate that comprehensive PMS influences managers’ cognition and motivation, which, in turn, influence managerial performance.

Contemporary Performance Measurement Systems: A Review of Their Consequences and a Framework for Research

TL;DR: The main purpose of this paper is to develop a conceptual framework for understanding the literature on the consequences of contemporary performance measurement (CPM) systems and the theories that explain these consequences.

Contemporary performance measurement systems: A review of their consequences and a framework for research

TL;DR: In this article, a conceptual framework for understanding the literature on the consequences of contemporary performance measurement (CPM) systems and the theories that explain these consequences is developed. But this framework is based on an in-depth review of 76 empirical studies published in high-quality academic journals in the areas of accounting, operations, and strategy.

Information system integration, enabling control and performance

TL;DR: It is argued that the level of information system integration fosters the four design characteristics that make up an enabling approach to management control, and each of these in turn is related to both perceived system success and business unit performance.

The use of partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) in management accounting research: Directions for future theory development

TL;DR: After reviewing eleven top-ranked management accounting journals through the end of 2013, 37 articles in which PLS-SEM is used are identified and a special focus is placed on the degree of importance of these analysed criteria for the future development of management accounting research.

On the use of partial least squares path modeling in accounting research

TL;DR: The benefits of using PLS are explained and the algorithm works to derive estimates for the measurement and structural models and guidelines in the development of research models, analysis of the data, and the interpretation of these results are offered.

The moderator–mediator variable distinction in social psychological research: Conceptual, strategic, and statistical considerations.

TL;DR: This article seeks to make theorists and researchers aware of the importance of not using the terms moderator and mediator interchangeably by carefully elaborating the many ways in which moderators and mediators differ, and delineates the conceptual and strategic implications of making use of such distinctions with regard to a wide range of phenomena.

Coefficient alpha and the internal structure of tests.

TL;DR: In this paper, a general formula (α) of which a special case is the Kuder-Richardson coefficient of equivalence is shown to be the mean of all split-half coefficients resulting from different splittings of a test, therefore an estimate of the correlation between two random samples of items from a universe of items like those in the test.
