The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing the jurors’ responsibility attribution to the auditors in audit failure litigation. These factors included affect, perception of the auditors’ role in fraud detection and loss sharing, and the jurors’ risk attitude. In a laboratory setting, participants read a hypothetical audit failure case, completed several questions pertaining to the independent and dependent variables, and provided their demographic information. The findings indicated positive relationships between (1) affect and responsibility attribution to the auditors, (2) affect and the auditors’ role in fraud detection and loss sharing, and (3) the auditors’ role in fraud detection and loss sharing and responsibility attribution to the auditors. In addition, the results demonstrated the mediating role of the auditors’ role in fraud detection and loss sharing in the relationship between affect and responsibility attribution. The findings also revealed the moderating role of risk attitude in the effect of affect on responsibility attribution.
