Key Points

To explore how structured audit approaches influence the assignment of human resources in relation to environmental complexity.
Defined environmental complexity levels
Assessed effects of structure on experience level in audits
Evaluated performance and supervision in different environments
Found that structured audits impact staffing decisions based on complexity
Noted a lack of response to complexity manipulations in certain contexts
Indicated that experience level plays a critical role in performance outcomes
