Abstract
This study aims to analyze the transition of scientific articles presented at the main Brazilian Accounting conferences to publication in national journals with Qualis A1 to A4 classification. To this end, data was collected from articles available on the websites of the conferences analyzed, focusing on the titles of the articles and names of their authors in the period between 2001 and 2023. These data were compared, through codes developed in Python, with the data available on the websites of the Brazilian national journals, which are the object of study. The results indicated that, although there is a significant number of researches approved in scientific conferences, there is little adherence to the subsequent publication of these works in journals. The ANPCONT Congress is the largest in accepted researches, but it is the second in publications in scientific journals (5.12%). The UFSC Congress of Controllership and Finance, the second largest in papers presented, is the third in publications in scientific journals (1.25%). The UnB Accounting and Governance Congress, the most recent of the congresses in the sample, has 1.06% of publications in scientific journals, and the USP International Conference on Accounting, the oldest, leads with 6.16% of publications in scientific journals. Regarding scientific initiation, the percentages are 3.23% for the UFSC Congress; 1.14% for the UnB Congress; 0.61% for the ANPCONT Congress and 0.11% for the USP Congress. These results help to explain the low publication rates of papers presented at Accounting congresses.
