The Worldwide Governance Indicators: Six, One, or None? (2010, background): “Several studies (see Sandholtz and Koetzle, 2000; You and Khagram, 2005; Tavits, 2007) use CC or TI’s Corruption Perception Index (CPI) as a dependent variable and the Freedom House ‘political freedoms’ index as an independent variable.”
Trust in the Police in 16 European Countries (2007, background): “Corruption can thus be defined as ‘the misuse of public office for private gain’ ( Sandholtz and Koetzle 2000: 32 ).”
Trade intensity, country size and corruption (2003, methodology): “This corruption indicator is used by Root (1999), Sandholtz and Koetzle (2000) , Treisman (2000), Wei (2000), and other studies.”
CAUSES AND EFFECTS OF CORRUPTION: WHAT HAS PAST DECADE'S EMPIRICAL RESEARCH TAUGHT US? A SURVEY (2018, unknown): “This relationship was found to be empirically true in a study that hypothesized corruption to be higher in countries with weaker democratic norms and institutions (Sandholtz and Koetzle, 2000).”
The challenge of poor governance and corruption (2005, background): “High levels of economic freedom and lower levels of corruption go together as does an index of democratization (e.g., Sandholtz and Koetzle 2000, Blake and Martin 2002, Kunicova and Rose-Ackerman 2003).”
