Abstract
Recent economic literature emphasizes the importance of moral considerations to explain compliance behavior with respect to underground activities such as tax evasion. A considerable amount of research aims to identify factors that affect the intrinsic motivation to comply. However, the causal link between the intrinsic motivation to comply and actual compliance behavior is not established yet. We
provide a discussion of the underlying identification problem and suggest(potentially) feasible empirical strategies to uncover a causal effect.
