The author refutes this logic by challenging current studies and examining the results of the Texas study. The findings suggest that minorities are repre…

A Field Experiment on Insurance Fraud in Auto Body Repair
This article focuses on a particular form of white‐collar crime–insurance fraud in auto body repair. Through the use of an experimental design, whether repair estimates were related to insurance coverage was investigated for a statewide representative sample of auto body repair shops in Massachusetts. The auto body repair estimates were significantly higher with insurance coverage than without, regardless of type of car, extent of damage, sex of …

Measuring associations with randomized response
The Validity of Randomized Response for Sensitive Measurements
Randomized response is a survey technique for reducing response bias arising from respondent concern over revealing sensitive information. There has been some question whether bias reduction earned through the randomized response approach is sufficient to compensate for its inefficiency. By comparing self-reported arrests for two interview conditions (randomized response and direct question) with corresponding true scores appearing in police arre…
