Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research and observations in educational psychology suggest that students' likelihood to cheat is influenced by their goals (performance vs. mastery), perceptions of assessment relevance, and perceived fairness or reasonableness of teacher expectations. However, the perception of a teacher as lenient or a "softie" does not directly correlate with increased cheating. In fact, students might cheat less if they believe they can achieve a good grade without resorting to dishonesty.
