Popis: We examine the scientific production on auditing between 2002 and 2013, based on a bibliometric/scientometric analysis of articles included in the Web of Science of the Institute for Scientific Information(ISI),with a view to analyzing the temporal evolution in that research activity. A quantitative and qualitative method was applied, including analyses of the period from 2002 till 2013. The results show that 60% of the publications in auditing are located in the category Business Finance, with an increase over time. As a form of contribution, the main characteristics of the auditing publications in the literature were systematically planned through a bibliometric and scientometric analysis with a view to creating its state of the art.
