摘要:The purpose of this study was to reveal data about cheating behavioursin Slovenian upper secondary schools, to raise awareness and to lowertolerance for such behaviour. To acquire information about demographics,cheating behaviour, and opinions on such behaviour, we compiled aquestionnaire that targeted a university population of first-year students(N=323). From the results, it was revealed that cheating is a way of life inSlovenian schools, and almost all students at least occasionally indulge insome academic misbehaviour. It seems that a culture tolerant or even supportiveof such behaviour has been established among students, parents andteachers, all working together to “help” students climb the ladder of success.The open question is whether all kinds of cheating are even recognized assuch. Cheating is most common in homework, but at the other end, evensystems such as external exams are not immune to fraud. At the moment,classic methods of cheating dominate. Differences between characters (e.g.gender) and educational institutions in most cases are non-existent or small,a finding that could aid in establishing measures to prevent cheating insideschools as institutions.
