Based on the data of A-share listed companies in Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock exchanges from 2016 to 2022, this paper investigates the impact of executive characteristics on the degree of earnings management in R&D activities. The results show that the average age, education level, proportion of technical directors, equity and salary of senior management members are negatively correlated with the degree of earnings management of R&D activities, the proportion of female directors of senior management members is positively correlated with the degree of earnings management of R&D activities, and the average tenure of senior management members and the proportion of executive directors have no significant impact on the degree of earnings management of R&D activities.
