Abstract: We use a threshold citation approach to measure the influence of 
articles, journals, institutions and researchers in accounting research. 
The Journal of Accounting Research, the Journal of Accounting and 
Economics and Accounting Review are the 3 most influential journals in 
accounting research. The 3 most influential institutions in accounting 
research are the University of Chicago, the University of Pennsylvania and 
the University of Michigan, while the 3 most frequently cited authors in 
accounting research are Richard G. Sloan, Robert E. Verrecchia and Paul M. 
Healy.
