摘要

目的我们检验合法货币和非法货币互换性的合理假设。从经济学、行为经济学和社会学的角度，我们回答了两个主要的研究问题：（1）罪犯对各种创收活动（合法与非法）所赚的钱的看法是否相同？（2）不同形式的创收活动的消费模式（支出和储蓄）有何不同？方法采用先验混合方法进行两项相关研究；对被监禁罪犯的定量调查（N = 58）和来自四个独立的先前研究项目的半结构化访谈的定性研究（N = 107）。结果根据被监禁罪犯和活跃罪犯的合法和非法消费模式的定量和定性数据，我们发现了存在差异消费模式的证据。结论我们的研究结果对犯罪的选择理论、应对贫困的公共政策方法和预防犯罪干预措施都有启示。

Crime, Consumption, and Choice: On the Interchangeability of Licit and Illicit Income

Objectives We examine the rational assumption of the interchangeability of legal and illegal monies. Drawing from economics, behavioral economics, and sociology we answer two main research questions: (1) Do offenders perceive money earned across various income-generating activities (legal vs. illegal) in the same way? (2) How do consumption patterns (spending and saving) differ across various forms of income-generating activities? Methods We use an a priori mixed methods approach with two interrelated studies; a quantitative survey of incarcerated offenders (N = 58) and a qualitative study of semi-structured interviews from four separate previous research projects (N = 107). Results We find evidence for the existence of differential consumption patterns based on quantitative and qualitative data from both incarcerated and active offenders regarding their patterns of spending legal and illegal money. Conclusions Our findings have implications for choice theories of crime, for public policy approaches to poverty, and crime prevention interventions.
