What the paper says

The slippery slope framework (SSF) posits that taxpayer compliance is influenced by two core dimensions: perceived power of the tax authority (Power) and perceived trust in the authority (Trust). This study investigates the application of the SSF in the context of two forms of noncompliant tax reporting: tax evasion and tax aggressiveness. An experiment conducted with 183 undergraduate students reveals that Trust is significantly stronger among tax-educated participants, particularly under high-trust conditions. Furthermore, voluntary compliance intention consistently and significantly impacts both tax evasion and tax aggressiveness. These findings contribute to the behavioural tax literature by demonstrating that SSF is relevant for understanding both fraudulent and aggressive tax reporting behaviours. The study highlights the importance of tax education and informational campaigns in cultivating tax literacy and promoting voluntary compliance.
