  • The purpose of this study is to examine some factors affecting the decision-making process of white-collar crime. In a between-subject experiment, 102 adult white-collar workers were randomly assigned to a financial pressure condition or tit for tat strategy condition. Participants went through a decision-making process in a modified iterated prisoner's dilemma for a white-collar crime scenario to earn points. The obtained score indicated the risk of committing a crime. The lower the score, the higher was the risk of participating in a crime. The results showed that participants who received only tit for tat strategy information without financial pressure instructions showed the lowest risk of participating in a crime, and those who received only financial pressure without the strategic information had the highest risk of participating in a crime. In addition, those who received the financial pressure instructions were more likely to participate in a crime than those who did not receive financial pressure instructions regardless of the provision of strategic information. The results of this study propose the need for measures to legally relieve financial pressure, the need for education on white-collar crimes for office workers, and the need for a decision-making structure within the enterprise that is not dogmatic but cooperative and mutually verifiable.

  • In this paper, I try to help the business operation so that they could continue the desirable operation despite the unfavorable conditions. It is important to reinforce for corporate growth various support measures to generate profits. However, if they are involved in criminal activities such as slush fund creation, they will have to deal with them separately. As a result, To raise awareness helps to keep the company running. Recently, the companies are in a poor condition due to overseas migration. If a company does not create profits by doing business, it is a burden to continue operating and it will eventually be hard to support and destroy. The corporate crime and white-collar crime are mostly similar types, mainly because they occur in the industry. The corporate crime proceeds throughout the company and ultimately translates into corporate profits. The white-collar crime, on the other hand, is a profitable part of the individual. In the process of generating profits, the purpose and management method of slush funds is an important issue in judging whether illegal immorality of business is intended or not. In addition, in the case of the corporate crime, it seems necessary to identify the types of slush fund raising activities in addition to the investigations of the accomplices and clinical investigations, and to apply efficient investigation methods on a case-by-case basis. At present, many companies frequently migrate overseas due to the influence of domestic regulations. In this process, if it is involved in crime such as a borrowing accounts or the purpose of slush fund creation should be treated separately.

  • In a recent period, it becomes more and more important to keep the cutting-edge industrial technology secured. This is because competitive technology appears to be a cornerstone of national power. Although the industrial espionage must be an illegal behavior or a kind of white-collar crime, there has been few researches on industrial espionage from a criminological perspective. This study investigates the relationship between industrial espionage, self-control, and organizational commitment. The hypotheses of this study were found to be statistically significant. The hypothesis 1 that the high self-control reduces the possibility of industrial espionage was accepted, and the hypothesis 2 that the high organizational commitment reduces the possibility of industrial espionage was also accepted. This results showed that self-control and organizational commitment were the key factors to prevent industrial espionage, which eventually reinforces industrial security. This study used a convenient sampling, which might be the limits of this study. By using a convenient sampling, the result of the study could not depend on representative sample. Nonetheless, this study was trying to explore the relationship between industrial espionage, self-control, and organizational commitment which was not researched yet. The purpose of this study is to contribute to find out the criminological causes of industrial espionage and eventually to prevent it.
