How Well Do Criminologists Explain Crime? Statistical Modeling in Published Studies (2008, background): “…of individual criminality, for example, may be so individualistic and varied, and found in such different places over the life course, that it is very difficult for scholars to identify them or for public policy makers to use them to develop crime prevention policies (Weisburd and Waring 2001).”
Criminal Careers in Organized Crime and Social Opportunity Structure (2008, background): “Nevertheless, this research tradition implicitly tends to ignore certain kinds of offender, particularly adult offenders, and certain types of crime, particularly organized crime and white-collar crime (Weisburd and Waring 2001; Leeper Piquero and Benson 2004; Steffensmeier and Ulmer 2005; Shover an”
Studying Criminal Career Length Through Early Adulthood Among Serious Offenders (2004, background): “Finally, Weisburd and Waring (2001) examined the length of criminal careers among a white-collar sample and found that their career durations were much longer than those observed among “traditional” offender samples.”
General Strain Theory and White-Collar Crime (2009, background): “There is much debate over how to define white-collar crime (for overviews, see Geis 1992; Shover and Wright 2001; Shapiro 1990; Weisburd and Waring 2001).”

(2011, unknown): “…when he indicated that white‐collar crime was the province of those of high social status because current criminological research does not support this sociological position when in fact, offenders from different class stratifications engage in fraud (Weisburd et al., 1991; Weisburd et al., 2001).”
Integrating the desire–for–control and rational choice in a corporate crime context (2005, background): “Despite claims to the contrary (Hirschi & Gottfredson, 1987), this line of research has not been successful in explaining white-collar or corporate crime (Benson & Moore, 1992; Geis, 2000; Reed & Yeager, 1996; Simpson & Piquero, 2002; Weisburd et al., 2001).”
