Rational Ignorance in Education: A Field Experiment in Student Plagiarism (2010, neutral): “Therefore, we relied on multiple-rater review of the underlying "originality reports" to identify unambiguous instances of student plagiarism.”
Who has read the policy on plagiarism? Unpacking students' understanding of plagiarism (2014, background): “…often described as being a form of cheating, academic fraud, misrepresentation or fabrication (Ashworth, Bannister, and Thorne 1997; Athanasou and Olasehinde 2002; McCabe 1992, 2005a; McCabe, Trevino, and Butterfield 2001, 2002; Newstead, Franklyn-Stokes, and Armstead 1996; Whitley Jr 1998).”
Motivational Perspectives on Student Cheating: Toward an Integrated Model of Academic Dishonesty (2006, background): “…three of the top 12 suggestions to in-structors for decreasing cheating pertained to shifting the norms for the course: not grading on a curve, focusing on learning rather than grading, and removing assignments that were trivial and uninteresting (McCabe, Trevino, & Butterfield, 2001).”
Academic Dishonesty in Graduate Business Programs: Prevalence, Causes, and Proposed Action (2006, background): “It emphasizes the moral socialization and training of all community members, clear communication of rules and expectations, creation of normative pressures, commitment to prosocial values and norms, and mutual respect (McCabe et al., 2001a).”

It is particularly interesting that this effect remains when statistically controlling for the effects of neutralizing attitudes”
FACTORS INFLUENCING ENGINEERING STUDENTS’ DECISIONS TO CHEAT BY TYPE OF ASSESSMENT (2006, background): “These four implications of the prevalence and severity of cheating have inspired a substantial body of research on cheating among college students, including eleven review articles published since 1977 (Brown and Emmett, 2001; Bushway and Nash, 1977; Cizek, 1999; Cole and McCabe, 1996; Crown and Spi”
