Data from published studies is used to recover information about the sample mean self-reported number of times cheated by college students. The sample means were estimated by fitting distributions to the reported data. The few estimated sample means thus recovered were roughly 2 or less.

Vignettes are used to examine the relation between students observing faculty actions and students' attitude that it is okay to cheat. The action is that the instructor uses either a low or a high level of cheating deterrence for the exam. The results indicate a statistically significant difference in attitudes upon observing the actions.
