Differences Between Women and Men Regarding Decisions To Commit Test Cheating.

Tibbetts, Stephen G.

Research in Higher Education, v40 n3 p323-42 Jun 1999

A scenario-based survey of 598 university students concerning test cheating found significant gender differences on measures of self-control, shame, perceived external sanctions, grades, and cheating intentions. Morals and grades were greater predictors in women's cheating intentions, while men were more affected by prior cheating and perceived pleasure of cheating. (Author/MSE)
