Why Do College Students Cheat
More is known about the pervasiveness of college cheating than reasons why students cheat. This article reports the results of a study that applied the theory of reasoned action and partial least squares methodology to analyze the responses of 144 students to a survey on cheating behavior. Approximately 60% of the business students and 64% of the non-business students admitted to such behavior....
متن کاملHow Do Children Solve Aesop's Fable?
Studies on members of the crow family using the "Aesop's Fable" paradigm have revealed remarkable abilities in these birds, and suggested a mechanism by which associative learning and folk physics may interact when learning new problems. In the present study, children between 4 and 10 years of age were tested on the same tasks as the birds. Overall the performance of the children between 5-7-ye...
متن کاملHow chimpanzees solve collective action problems.
We presented small groups of chimpanzees with two collective action situations, in which action was necessary for reward but there was a disincentive for individuals to act owing to the possibility of free-riding on the efforts of others. We found that in simpler scenarios (experiment 1) in which group size was small, there was a positive relationship between rank and action with more dominant ...
متن کاملSelf-Explonations: How Students Study and Use Examples in Learning to Solve Problems
The present paper analyzes the self-generated explanations (from talk-aloud protocols) that “Good” ond “Poor” students produce while studying worked-out exomples of mechanics problems, and their subsequent reliance on examples during problem solving. We find that “Good” students learn with understanding: They generate many explanations which refine and expand the conditions for the action ports...
متن کاملHow well do Computers Solve Math Word Problems? Large-Scale Dataset Construction and Evaluation
Recently a few systems for automatically solving math word problems have reported promising results. However, the datasets used for evaluation have limitations in both scale and diversity. In this paper, we build a large-scale dataset which is more than 9 times the size of previous ones, and contains many more problem types. Problems in the dataset are semiautomatically obtained from community ...
