“…Within the domain of white collar crime, scholars have used vignettes to examine various behavioral outcomes. Some have used vignettes to assess individuals' hypothetical willingness to commit various offenses—including credit card fraud and/or embezzlement (Craig, 2017, 2019; Reed & Rorie, 2023); price‐fixing (Piquero, 2012); and environmental crimes (Ray & Jones, 2011). Some have used vignettes to assess individuals' hypothetical willingness to punish white collar criminals by asking participants to recommend appropriate monetary fines and/or prison sentences (Cox et al., 2016; Grolleau et al., 2020; Michel, 2016; Reisig et al., 2022).…”

To comprehensively grasp, predict, and address the complexity of white collar crime, robust measurement tools are imperative. The burgeoning interdisciplinary interest in this domain has spurred the development of diverse assessment tools aimed at capturing offending behavior and its proxies. In the present paper, we provide an overview of the strengths and weaknesses of several commonly employed measures, including official statistics, victimization surveys, self‐report surveys, and (quasi)experimental measures. Drawing insights from this review, we then introduce a novel behavioral measure: the donation method. Although the task was originally designed to examine behaviors of interest to behavioral economists, we carefully outline strategies to refine and implement the donation method to assess white collar crime, addressing challenges such as task suitability and controlling for respondent behavior. Additionally, we provide a sample task to illustrate how such a tool could be used within this field. We conclude by underlining the appeal of adopting innovative measurement tools like the donation method to advance our collective understanding of white collar crime. By advocating for its widespread adoption and providing guidance for its use, we endeavor to catalyze progress in the field, facilitating unique insights and, potentially, more efficacious strategies for confronting and surmounting the methodological obstacles inherent in studying this elusive form of criminal activity.

“…The extent of women involvement in white-collar crime has traditionally been explained by the emancipation hypothesis suggesting that more gender equality will lead to more women involvement (Lutz, 2019;Reed and Rorie, 2022;Steffensmeier et al, 2013) supporting equal opportunities. Equality is related to empowerment that reflects women's decision-making power (Noor et al, 2021), where women's business networks can reflect power and influence (Villesèche et al, 2022).…”

Purpose This paper aims to understand the involvement of women in white-collar crime (WCC) also referred to as pink-collar crimes. WCC is present around the globe and has created a word for itself. Design/methodology/approach The paper is designed by studying the WCC in the area of Iran, Portugal, Norway, India and the USA. Findings The paper attempts to move beyond the traditional perspectives of emancipation versus focal concern, which argue that less inequality will increase women involvement in WCC versus women socializing into accepting responsibilities for social concerns by caring for others. Research limitations/implications As the data is restricted, this study is based on the limited data available on the internet. Originality/value This paper is an original work of the authors.
