Based on the research results, it is concluded that work experience has a positive and significant effect on audit judgment. The more experienced an auditor is, the greater the auditor's ability to solve any existing problems and can assist the auditor in predicting and detecting problems professionally so that the resulting audit judgment is better. Second, the pressure of obedience has a negative and significant effect on audit judgment. The more professionally an auditor conducts an audit, the better the resulting audit quality.

This study examines the effects of gender and task complexity on the accuracy of audit judgments. Because research in cognitive psychology and marketing suggests that females may be more accurate decision makers in complex decision tasks, we hypothesize that there will be a significant interaction between gender and task complexity on the accuracy of an audit judgment. A 2×2 full factorial experiment (males/females by high-/low-task complexity) was carried out. The number and consistency of cues was manipulated to create the high- and low-complexity conditions. Participants were required to judge whether an inventory balance was fairly presented based on case material that contained a material misstatement in the inventory account balance. The results support the hypothesis.
