Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between children's cheating behaviors and their self-reported orality. For this study, 883 children were selected from 7 elementary schools and from 7 middle schools in Seoul, Korea. The participating students included 4th, 6th and 8th graders. The research was performed through the administration of questionnaires designed to measure the students' cheating behaviors and morality. The results were as follows: 1. The children cheated on occasion. More cheating occurred during homework than while taking an examination. During an examination, there was more lone cheating than students helping other students to cheat. With regard to homework cheating, helping others to cheat was higher than students doing their own cheating. Cheating behavior increased in higher grades, but there was no difference between genders. 2. In relation to children's morality, distinctions between 6th graders, 8th graders and 4th graders were different demonstrated. 3. In relation to cheating behavior and morality (4 factors), while PHIL (interests to others) factor decreased cheating behavior, EMP (understanding of emotion and feeling) factor increased cheating behavior.
