Implementing section 404 of the sarbanes oxley act: Recommendations for information systems organizations
Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley (SOX) Act addresses the effectiveness of internal controls,
which in most organizations are either fully or partially automated due to the pervasiveness
and ubiquity of information technologies. Significant or material control deficiencies have to be
reported publicly. The adverse impact on organizations declaring deficiencies can be severe, for
example, damage to reputation and/or market value. While there are many practitioner-led manuals
and methods for dealing with 404, there has been little published in the academic research
literature investigating the role of Information Systems organizations in implementing Section
404. The paper addresses this gap in knowledge. We used institutional theory as the lens through
which to examine the experiences of Section 404 implementation in three global organizations.
We used the case study method and an abductive strategy to gather and analyze data respectively.
Our findings are summarized in six recommendations. We found that institutional pressures play
a critical role in the implementation of Section 404. In particular, organizations face coercive
pressure to achieve Section 404 compliance, without which punitive sanctions can be imposed by
regulators. Organizations tend to imitate one another in the methods they use so that each is perceived
to be in line with their competitive environment. Organizations face normative pressures to
act in ways that are socially acceptable, which is to achieve compliance. Failure to do so would
be a signal to the market that the organization does not take controls seriously. We expand these
findings in terms of power and influence tactics that IS organizations can use when implementing
Section 404. Our findings provide directions for practice and lines of enquiry for further research

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
