For more detail, see guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics http://publicationethics.org/files/retraction%20guidelines.pdf. The authors have replicated the survey with an independent group of financial executives. Those results are available at http://ssrn.com/abstract=2569871. However, this subsequent replication should not be taken as a validation or endorsement of the veracity of the data that form the basis for certain of Dr. Hunton's published works as the authors presently have no ability to verify the authenticity of that work. This replication has not been reviewed by the Editors of JAR.

Section 4 of the above-referenced paper includes empirical analysis based on survey data obtained from Dr. James E. Hunton. Because of concerns raised by the Bentley Report (available at https://www.bentley.edu/files/Hunton%20report%20July21.pdf) about the inability to independently verify data that form the basis for certain of Dr. Hunton's published works, the editors of JAR and the authors of the above-referenced article hereby issue an Expression of Concern with respect to this article.1 Specifically, the authors have concluded that the validity of the survey data that underlie Section 4 of this article cannot be confirmed, and suggest that the inferences readers draw from the article be adjusted accordingly.2 Volume53, Issue4September 2015Pages 913-913 RelatedInformation
