Interesting take, but I think it's more complex than that.
NA

I thought situational pressures played a bigger role.
LA

Wait, really? That sounds off to me.
BE

Totally agree, personal integrity is key!
FR
Fredric 12 months ago
That's actually false, low integrity leads to more fraud.
SU
Sue 12 months ago
I remember something about low opportunities leading to less fraud, but the wording here is tricky. I might go with True just to be safe.
JE

This sounds familiar; I think we had a practice question about the relationship between integrity and fraud. I want to say it's False, but I could be mixing it up.
RO
Royce 1 year ago
I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like we discussed how situational pressures can really influence behavior. Maybe that means it's True?
MA
Mari 1 year ago
I think I remember studying that when personal integrity is high, it actually reduces the likelihood of fraud, so I might lean towards False.

This is a classic fraud question. I've got this one covered.

Okay, let me break this down step-by-step. I think I can figure this out.
GL

I'm pretty confident I know the right answer here. It's all about the situational pressures.
LA

Hmm, I'm not sure about this. The wording is a bit confusing.
MA

This seems like a tricky one. I'll need to think it through carefully.
MI

This looks like a straightforward question about the equipment needed for a wireless survey. I'm pretty confident I can identify the three correct pieces.
RU

Okay, I've read through the options a few times now. I think Maynard's got the right idea - evaluating based on project completion doesn't seem to fit with the other quality management elements listed.
HA

This looks like a straightforward SQL question. I think the answer is B, DBMS_REDACT.PARTIAL, since the question mentions redacting the salary column to display only the number of characters.

Okay, I've got this. Since the pages contain
and tags, which are not valid in XHTML, I'll need to choose a strict XHTML doctype to ensure proper migration.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know we covered DNS in class, but I can't quite remember the specific command to resolve a name to an IP. Let me think this through carefully.

Well, well, well, look who's trying to pull a fast one on us! If this were true, I'd be out of a job. Nice try, exam writers, but I'm not falling for it. Definitely B) False.
KE

Ah, the age-old conundrum of integrity versus opportunity. I'm going to have to side with Susana on this one. The opposite must be true - high integrity and low pressures/opportunities lead to less fraud, not more.

I think you're right, personal integrity plays a big role in preventing occupational fraud.

I agree with you, high integrity and low pressures definitely reduce the likelihood of fraud.

A) True
JU
Justine 1 year ago
Ha! I'm pretty sure this is a trick question. If the question was asking about *unoccupied* fraud, then maybe the answer would be true. But for occupational fraud? Definitely false!
JA

↳ replying to Justine
I think the answer is false too. Occupational fraud is less likely when personal integrity is high.

I agree, it does seem like a trick question.

WI

A) True
SU
Susana 1 year ago
Hmm, this doesn't seem right. If personal integrity is high, then the chances of fraud should be much lower, regardless of the other factors. I'll have to go with B) False on this one.
LI
Lizette 2 years ago
But think about it, when there's low pressure and high integrity, people may be more tempted to commit fraud because they think they won't get caught.
LI

I disagree, I believe it's false.
LI

I think the statement is true.

True? Really? Isn't that the complete opposite of what we've been taught about occupational fraud? I'm going to have to disagree with this one.

Yeah, I don't think it makes sense for fraud to be more likely in that scenario.
