Abstract

The economic crisis has highlighted the need to pay close attention to thedisclosure of financial information by public administrations. The presentpaper seeks to analyse the financial determinants that researchers haveoften considered in the main exploratory models presented and the mainmoderating effects that could influence the association between financialvariables and financial disclosures of public administrations. To achievethis aim, this paper applies a meta-analysis statistical method, which hasallowed us to conclude that moderating factors such as the year of thepublication of the study, the communication channel, the administrativeculture and the unit of measure could have influenced on the results ofprior research regarding the association between financial variables andfinancial disclosures of public administrations, which creates knowledgeabout if the financial variables exert the same pressure over publicadministrations to disclose financial information regardless the context inwhich these variables are presented.
