2. __________ is the term used for including additional coverages in the insurance policy without the knowledge of the insured.

A. Twisting
B. Sliding
C. Churning
D. None of the above

Correct Answer (B)

Sliding is the term used for including additional coverages in the insurance policy without the knowledge of the insured. The extra charges are hidden in the total premium, and, since the insured is unaware of the coverage, few claims are ever filed. For example, motor club memberships, accidental death, and travel accident coverages can usually be slipped into the policy without the knowledge of the insured.

4. Under provisions of the Fifth Amendment, a defendant may NOT be required to produce, before the time of trial, relevant evidence to the prosecution.
A. True
B. False

Correct Answer (B)

The government may require the defense to produce before trial all relevant documents, items, test results, and other evidence the defendant intends to offer as evidence at trial. This provision does not violate the defendant’s Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination, which protects him or her only from compelled production of testimonial statements.

5. Prior convictions of a defendant usually are NOT introduced at trial unless the defendant takes the stand.
A. True
B. False

Correct Answer (A)

If a defendant testifies in his or her own behalf in a criminal trial, he or she is subject to cross-examination, just like any other witness, and the prosecution may impeach his or her credibility by showing prior convictions. This usually is a death blow to the defense, and is the reason that many defendants do not testify.

6. In a complex organizational structure, it is less likely that misbehavior will be detected and punished than in a simple organizational structure.
A. True
B. False

Correct Answer (A)

Complex companies provide a structure that can foster misbehavior. They provide many settings where misconduct is possible. They isolate those settings in departments and in locations around a city, the country, or the world. The isolation, in turn, means that information about what one part of a company is doing may be unknown in another part. All this reduces the risk that misbehavior will be detected and punished. The larger a company grows, the more specialized its sub-units tend to become. An internally diversified company may have few employees who fully understand the detailed workings.

7. In the area of criminological theory, ____________ is the theory that tries to prevent a crime before it occurs by using the threat of criminal sanctions.
A. Punishment
B. Prevention
C. Deterrence
D. None of the above

Correct Answer (C)

As a strategy to control crime, deterrence is designed to detect law violations, determine who is responsible, and penalize offenders in order to deter future violations. Deterrence systems try to control the immediate behavior of individuals, not the long-term behaviors targeted by compliance systems. Deterrence theory assumes that humans are rational in their behavior patterns. Humans seek profit and pleasure while they try to avoid pain. Deterrence assumes that an individual’s propensity toward lawbreaking is in inverse proportion to the perceived probability of negative consequences.
