| Summary: | Academic Dishonesty is associated with general corruption, workplace dishonest actions, and a bad reputation for schools. However, few articles have studied the role of perceived cheating prevalence. Therefore, using the Theory of Planned Behavior and Perceived cheating prevalence, this paper proposes a structural equation model to explain academically dishonest actions. Using questionnaires, the following variables were measured: perceived cheating prevalence, self-reported cheating, and the TPB variables (intention, attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, & moral obligation). Results show the TPB’s attitudes and moral obligation as significant predictors of academic dishonesty, and perceived prevalence being an important mediator. These results show that perceived prevalence, attitudes, moral obligation should be included in future interventions aimed at reducing cheating behaviors. |
