中美大学生对作弊态度和看法的比较分析

A Comparative Analysis on Attitudes and Perceptions towards Academic Dishonesty between Universities Students in China and U.S.

近来美国一些研究发现作弊已经成为全美各高校的棘手问题，同时指出外国学更容易作弊，在亚洲，特别是中国的大学生作弊有失控的迹象。本文对中美大学生进行问卷调查，希望藉此增进对不同文化背景和教育背景下大学生有关作弊态度和看法的理解。调查结果发现，中美大学生有关作弊的看法和态度既有相似之处，又有存在差异的地方，其中一些区别反应了两国的文化差异。

Many recent studies reported that academic dishonesty became a distressing concern across university campuses in the United States. Meanwhile， it was also reported that foreign students were more actively involved in cheating activities. In Asian countries， especially in China， where the definitions of academic dishonesty were “looser” than in the U.S.， academic dishonesty was running out of control. The research found that there were statistical commonalities as well as statistical differences between Chinese university students and American university students， in regard to their perceptions and attitudes towards academic dishonesty. Some findings might reflect cultural differences.
