Design/Methodology/Approach: This study was conducted through a systematic literature review using content analysis based on 40 papers from the scopus, web of science and ebscohost databases on ir quality. While reading the full-text papers, the authors found six papers referenced by the literature being reviewed that were relevant to IR Quality. Thus, there were 46 papers in the final review. The analysis begins with the definition and dimension of Ir Quality and Theoretical Lenses. Furthermore, this study outlines constructs or variables used in the previous literature. Finding: The Authors Found That Most Studies used the quantitative method (41 papers or 89%). Five papers in the literature used qualitative methods (11%). Most Researcher (34 Papers or 72%) Defined IR Quality as Consistent with the International Integrated Reporting Council Framework, Specifically the Eight Content Elements. In particular, with the constructs that make up the quality of the IR, variations between the researcher were found. Furthermore, there were some gaps that could be the directions for
Future Research. Research Limitations/Implications: The Literature that Provides Academic Knowledge About IR Quality is still limited, and research on Ir is still growing.
