Critical review
دراسة نقدية: على الرغم من أهمية الدراسة في تحديد العوامل المؤثرة في القدرة التنافسية للمدقق الخارجي السوري، إلا أن هناك بعض النقاط التي يمكن تحسينها. أولاً، كان من الممكن توسيع حجم العينة لتشمل عدد أكبر من المدققين لضمان تمثيل أوسع وأكثر دقة. ثانياً، لم يتم التطرق بشكل كافٍ إلى تأثير العوامل الاقتصادية والسياسية على القدرة التنافسية للمدققين في سوريا، وهو جانب مهم يجب مراعاته في ظل الظروف الحالية. ثالثاً، كان من الممكن استخدام أساليب تحليلية أكثر تعقيداً لتحليل البيانات، مما قد يوفر نتائج أكثر دقة وتفصيلية. وأخيراً، كان من الممكن تقديم توصيات أكثر تحديداً وقابلة للتنفيذ لتحسين القدرة التنافسية للمدققين.
