No 19/1990, Bank of Finland Research Discussion Papers from Bank of Finland

Abstract: This note presents new evidence on Finnish property criminality. The analysis is based on Earlichls (1973) model; the empirical an~lysis makes use af annual Finnish data for the period 1951 - 1986. The estimation results strongly support the notion that both the appreh~nsion rate and the severity of punishment have a strong deterrence effect on larcenies and robberies.
