cited articles in international journals that their subjects are auditing
directly to the scope of developments in auditing. In line with this purpose, primarily the journals
about accounting education directly in Scopus
3 journals (Auditing, International Journal of Auditing and Current Issues in
Auditing) were determined. The scope of this research is the most cited the
first 25 articles in Scopus for each journal which published in 2008-2017. These articles
were investigated with content analysis. As a

Sarbanes-Oxley Act and its impacts, the quality of the audit, and the PCAOB
reports and impacts. To the number of authors, the most articles were
written by three or more person, to the authors’ intuitions the most
institutions were from USA. It was seen that the highest impact per publication
