Risk of Corruption in Public Procurement in Portuguese Municipalities. How is It Related to Politics, Gender of the Mayor, and Socioeconomic Municipalities Characteristics
Predictors of perceived wrongfulness and harmfulness of crime among residents in Portugal
A fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis of corruption and homicide in Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development countries through the lens of the institutional anomie theory
Institutional Anomie Theory has been widely used in the study of criminal phenomena. Institutional Anomie Theory offers a macro explanation of crime because it locates the cause of crime in the anomie created by the combination of a cultural overemphasis on monetary success and restricted economic opportunity. In such a context, the economy dominates the social macrostructure and non-economic social institutions (family, education, polity) may co…
A fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis of how corruption, education, inequality and trust in parliament affect voter-turnout
This article empirically examines whether corruption, education, inequality, and trust in parliament affect voter turnout in countries that are members of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. Specifically, fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis is used to determine whether these factors (individually or in combination) are necessary or sufficient conditions for high or low voter turnout. To date, this method has never b…
The Role of Morality, Self-Control, and Deterrence in Tax Evasion
Situational action theory holds that crime occurs when it is perceived as a viable course of action and when there is a conflict between personal morality and the moral norms of the setting, being self-control and deterrence decisive. In this paper, the propositions of situational action theory are tested in the decision to evade taxes. Based on a survey completed by 1638 adults and containing two tax evasion scenarios, the present study investig…
O cumprimento das obrigações fiscais
Este estudo analisa o impacto sobre o comportamento de cidadãos portugueses com um nível de escolaridade igual ou superior ao ensino secundário, relativamente a duas medidas de política fiscal - lotaria fiscal e benefícios fiscais - associadas ao programa "e-fatura" e implementadas com vista a incentivar o cumprimento voluntário das obrigações fiscais. As análises quantitativa e qualitativa dos dados recolhidos em inquérito por questionário permi…
Please give me an invoice”
Purpose The Portuguese tax authority implemented a lottery to encourage citizens to request invoices as a strategy to fight value-added tax (VAT) evasion. As the law does not require citizens to request sales invoices with the consumers’ tax number, doing so is a form of voluntary cooperation in tracking down tax evaders. The purpose of this paper is to understand why ordinary citizens decide to join forces with tax authorities in the fight again…
Personality Traits and Plagiarism
The relationship of personality, study practice and learning environments on excelent engineering students
In the present study, a group of high-achieving students is characterized, and the relationship between personality traits, study practices and learning environments is explored. Thirty three engineering students with outstanding academic achievement were assessed using a mixed method approach, consisting of a semi-structured interview and two questionnaires: the NEO-PI-R (Portuguese version) and the Study Skills Scale. The resulting data indicat…
An empirical analysis of municipal choice in Portugal
In assessing specific combinations of supply and demand influences on local public choice, four policy issues with differing ideological attributes were compared over a period of two electoral terms in Portuguese municipalities. Results confirmed the significance of ideology and the non-neutrality of the electoral agenda in shaping specific expenditure issues (culture and urban waste management). There was also some evidence demonstrating the pol…
