Daumiller, Martin; Janke, Stefan – AERA Open, 2019
We investigated how evaluation standards employed in performance tests affect the impact of performance goals (here focused on appearance) on academic cheating.

Although numerous survey-based studies have found that students who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or questioning (LGBQ) have elevated risk for many negative academic, disciplinary, psychological, and health outcomes, the validity of the types of data on which these results rest have come under increased scrutiny. Over the past several years,…
