While previous studies have explored students' use of different AI tools for academic purposes, studies that have specifically investigated students' use of ChatGPT for dishonest academic purposes in Nigeria are lacking. The consequence of this contextual and knowledge gap is a lack of specific understanding regarding students' engagement with…

Shala, Sabiha; Hyseni-Spahiu, Mimoza; Selimaj, Afrim – International Journal for Educational Integrity, 2020
Although there is much research on the contract cheating phenomenon, there is very little research on the legal solutions available to address such problems and almost zero research on the contract cheating phenomenon specifically in Kosovo in the Western Balkan region. This article presents the current situation with regard to contract cheating…

Amigud, Alexander; Dawson, Phillip – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2020
Contract cheating happens when students commission someone else to do assessed work for them. While it is already illegal in 18 jurisdictions, others are considering making the provision of contract cheating services illegal. To date, legal approaches to addressing contract cheating have faced little scrutiny in the peer reviewed literature. This…

Sakworawich, Arnond; Wainer, Howard – Journal of Educational and Behavioral Statistics, 2020
Test scoring models vary in their generality, some even adjust for examinees answering multiple-choice items correctly by accident (guessing), but no models, that we are aware of, automatically adjust an examinee's score when there is internal evidence of cheating. In this study, we use a combination of jackknife technology with an adaptive robust…

Scientific progress depends on the integrity of data and research findings. Intentionally distorting research data and findings constitutes scientific misconduct and introduces falsehoods into the scientific record. Unintentional distortions arising from questionable research practices (QRPs), such as unsystematically deleting outliers, pose…

Coetzee, Tanya; Pryce-Jones, Katie; Grant, Leigh; Tindle, Richard – International Journal for Educational Integrity, 2022

A sample of 234 university students (57% female) aged between 16 and 64 (M[subscript age] = 25.56, SD[subscript age] = 8.18) responded to an online survey. The survey included demographic…

Parkinson, Ann L.; Hatje, Eva; Kynn, Mary; Kuballa, Anna V.; Donkin, Rebecca; Reinke, Nicole B. – Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 2022
Academic integrity is important, not just in the university setting but beyond, as students graduate and move into professional fields. Discrepancies in the understanding of what constitutes academic dishonesty exist between institutional policies, discipline areas and individual educators, which creates challenges for students trying to uphold…

Lim, Kieran Fergus – Physics Education, 2022
Undergraduate first-year courses are often mandatory for students in a variety of majors and degrees. Many students view these core courses as of little interest and relevance, which is associated with lack of motivation for study and can lead to cheating. Contract cheating in text-based is difficult to detect and prove. Contract cheating in…

Verhoef, Anné Hendrik; Fourie, Mariette; Janse van Rensburg, Zander; Louw, Henk; Erasmus, Mianda – International Journal for Educational Integrity, 2022
This article was motivated by the need to academically frame and share the response of the North-West University (NWU) to the perceived increase of academic dishonesty during COVID-19. Within the ambit of the online (hybrid) teaching and learning approach that became dominant during the COVID-19 pandemic, the NWU established a Community of…

J.; Sandoe, Peter; Lund, Thomas Boker – International Journal for Educational Integrity, 2022
Plagiarism and other transgressions of the norms of academic integrity appear to be a persistent problem among upper secondary students. Numerous surveys have revealed high levels of infringement of what appear to be clearly stated rules. Less attention has been given to students' understanding of academic integrity, and to the potential…

Enweh, Innocent Ikechukwu; Onyedibe, Maria Chidi Christiana; Onu, Desmond Uchechukwu – Journal of Academic Ethics, 2022
Academic dishonesty (AD) is a threat to quality education, ethics of professional practices and career outcomes. Psychopathy is connected to AD. This study investigated whether academic confidence (AC) mediates the relationship between psychopathy and AD. University students (N = 335, mean age = 18.38 years) completed measures of relevant…

Peterson, Jennifer – Mid-Western Educational Researcher, 2019
Currently, online formal education is growing at a phenomenal rate; however, many fear that online courses do not provide the same rigor as on-campus courses. This is due in large part to the perception that students are more likely to cheat in online courses. A number of studies have been completed in this area and, in fact, many have shown that…
