This paper shows how the technique of data envelopment analysis can be used to weigh the factors affecting audit quality and examine the efficiency of auditors in terms of audit quality. The input and output variables of this research, which were collected by the library method, include economic, political, cultural-social, and psychological variables, and the data were collected using a researcher-made questionnaire tool and the participation of 100 employees of auditing institutions. In this study, we considered each auditor as a decision-making unit and by analyzing the data using General algebraic modeling system (GAMS) software, we showed how the efficiency of auditors in terms of audit quality is affected by cultural-social, economic, political and psychological factors.
