Self report studies ask offenders to share if they've committed other crimes. The offender may not want to share this information, for fear of being tried for a separate offense, and the offender may not know what to call the crime. The uniform crime report is based on observed occurrences and is clearly defined, so if a burglary is reported it was a burglary and not a robbery.
