Abstract
ABSTRACT Although rational choice theory has been widely researched, the role of morality is underemphasized in explaining individuals’ willingness to offend (WTO). The present study uses survey data and vignettes to evaluate the association between morality and WTO across several scenario manipulations. We also compare results across multiple analytical strategies. Our findings indicate that those with strong moral beliefs are less likely to offend regardless of context, but that context does matter for those with weak moral beliefs. Findings are also consistent across analytical strategies, suggesting that modeling choice has no substantive influence when assessing this research question.
