White-collar crime (WCC) causes considerable societal harm, the economic and psychosocial costs of which exceed those of conventional crime. Despite the impact, it has received scant attention from the academic literature in forensic psychiatry. This narrative literature review covers important topics in our understanding of white-collar crime, including offender characteristics such as demographics, criminal history, mental illness, personality and psychopathy, the link with violent offending and the trajectory of the white-collar offender (WCO) through the criminal justice system. White-collar crime is under-researched, particularly with regards to psychopathology, and the field of forensic psychiatry may have important contributions to make to our understanding of this important and harmful type of crime.
白领犯罪(WCC)对社会造成了相当大的危害,其经济和心理社会成本超过了传统犯罪。尽管有此影响,但它在法医精神病学的学术文献中却很少受到关注。这篇叙述性文献综述涵盖了我们对白领犯罪理解中的重要主题,包括犯罪者特征,如人口统计学、犯罪史、精神疾病、人格和心理opathy,与暴力犯罪的联系以及白领犯罪者(WCO)在刑事司法系统中的轨迹。白领犯罪的研究不足,特别是在精神病理学方面,法医精神病学领域可能对我们理解这种重要且有害的犯罪类型做出重要贡献。
