Abstract
ABSTRACTBased on a survey of 52 U.S.-based organizations, this study investigates the influence of perceptions of environmental factors on an organization's intention to adopt XBRL, after controlling for the SEC mandate. Reflecting the view of XBRL as both a technical innovation and a standard for financial reporting, the selection of environmental factors was derived from institutional theory and from the standards adoption literature. The results suggest that perceived mimetic and normative pressures, as well as perceptions of network technologies and related technologies that facilitate the use of XBRL, exert a significant positive influence on XBRL adoption even after controlling for the effects of the SEC mandate.
