ASSIGNMENT 02: MULTIPLE-CHOICE QUESTIONS

1. Critics of … raised the concern that it is unreasonable to expect people to openly admit
to their illegal activities, as they might not only lie about the severity of their acts, but
also disregard some of the crimes they have committed.

1. crime mapping
2. personal interviews
3. crime statistics
4. self-report studies

Answer:

Refer to page 69 of the study guide:

2.2.0.01 Are self-report studies accurate?
Methodological issues have been raised about the accuracy of such studies. Critics of
self-report studies are of the opinion that it would be unreasonable to expect people
to openly admit to their illegal activities. Some people might lie about the severity
of their acts, forget about some of the crimes they have committed or be confused
about what is being asked (Siegel 2013:37; Wash 2015:39). Males also tend to report
their antisocial activities less honestly than females and those individuals who do have
a serious criminal history tend to underreport their crime (Wash 2015:39).
