This paper connects the problem of artificial intelligence (AI)-facilitated academic misconduct with crime-prevention based recommendations about the prevention of academic misconduct in more traditional forms. Given that academic misconduct is not a new phenomenon, there are lessons to learn from established information relating to misconduct…

The purpose of this study was to better understand factors that influenced academic fraudulent excuse making. Previous research shows that deception in many forms is very common (e.g., Austin et al., 2006; Griffin et al., 2015; Kapoor & Kaufman, 2021; Murdock & Anderman, 2006). Fraudulent excuse making has been predominantly studied…

The application of open source technology promotes information technological progress. At the same time, open source information technology is also inseparable from the innovation and contribution of open source talents to open source information technology. In this study, the main purpose is to identify the factors that influence the sustained…

Despite the potential for personalized learning, e-learning courses often suffer from low completion rates. In order to address this issue, we propose and empirically test a theoretical mechanism that examines how gamification can enhance the completion rate in adaptive learning courses by promoting a more positive behavioral response and attitude…

The effect of school entry age on children's later performance is a long-debated topic without any convergence. Besides, existing studies have mostly limited themselves to examining the impact of entry age on children's cognitive achievements. In Germany, where different entry-age regulations exist across federal states and academic tracking takes…

Authentic assessments in higher education typically imply the replication of real-world tasks. Psychological authenticity is the perceived alignment between an individual's internal reference sources (i.e. personal values and beliefs) and their actions. Applying psychological authenticity logic to assessment tasks, we investigated students'…

Several studies highlight the effects of gamification on behavioral changes in education. Furthermore, the students' personality traits were shown to be an important factor on the different levels of perception of educational gamification systems. However, despite the importance of considering personality in educational gamification, little is…

Bullying, particularly among teenagers and young adults, is one of the most important issues facing school communities. At its very heart, this issue speaks to a troubling form of deviant behavior. When students engage in bullying behaviors, the effects are felt far beyond that of the direct victim. As such, it is important to investigate the…

As elsewhere in the world, academic misconduct is a serious problem in Aotearoa. Yet, beyond the occasional newspaper headline, we know relatively little about the extent of the problem here or the factors associated with it. Consequently, our educational leaders and practitioners are left under-informed as they seek to address the problem and…

Contribution: This article presents a Mars Exploration Control Virtual Simulation Experiment Platform (MEC-vslab), which aims to address the current challenge of limited integration between control engineering education and engineering practice. MEC-vslab is oriented toward the practical needs of Mars exploration engineering. It offers…

The present study examined the associations among social media use and academic self-efficacy, academic procrastination, and academic achievement. Grit was proposed as the potential mediator between social media use and different academic variables. Two samples of undergraduate students recruited from two different universities in the U.S. (Study…

Priming examinees with questions about intended effort prior to testing has been shown to significantly increase examinee expended effort via self-reported effort and response-time effort. However, this question-behavior effect seems to wear off later in a testing session. We examined whether administering a second "dose" of the…

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to adopt the theory of planned behavior to close the entrepreneurial attitude-intention-behavior gap in the entrepreneurship field as well as test the key moderators of the entrepreneurial process, starting from entrepreneurial attitude and intention to behavior to engage in entrepreneurial activities --…
