Purpose and Background: The purpose of the present study is to examine the influence of prevention methods on the incidence of different types of academic misconduct. Plagiarism is a pervasive occurrence and educational systems have had to deal with it and paid a lot because of it for a long time. Methodology: The method of this study is descriptive, in terms of implementation, it is a survey, and in terms of purpose, it is practical. Data for this study were collected using a researcher-constructed questionnaire. Its validity was confirmed by a number of sports management faculty and its reliability calculated 87/0 with Cronbach's alpha. The questionnaire was designed with a Likert scale of 5 values. The participants of the study include physical education students all over the country. Based on geographic regions of the country, five universities selected from the North, South, East, West and center of the country all of which were graduate students of physical education. The statistical sample of the study included graduate students of Physical Education in Tehran, Shiraz, Kurdistan, Mazandaran and Mashhad Universities. The selection of sample was available by stratified-Stochastic sampling method. Sample size in five colleges determined, based on the number of graduate students of this five faculty and using Morgan table. Results: The findings show the importance of prevention methods, especially the knowledgeable observers and judges at various stages of research in occurring academic misconduct. Conclusion: In order to deal with all kinds of academic misconduct, the directors of the affair must give special attention to the prevention methods, especially the Mostafa Setamdideh, Aidin Memarbashi, Loghman Ghaderi-PREVENTION METHODS AND TYPES OF ACADEMIC MISCONDUCT European Journal of Physical Education and Sport Science-Volume 2 │ Issue 1 │ 2016 21 knowledgeable observers and judges as an affecting factor in the incidence of academic misconducts.
The aim of the present research is to investigate the impact of anticipation procedures on the incidence of different types of academic misconduct in physical education and sport. Plagiarism is a persistent manifestation and scholastic structures have had to deal with. The used method of this investigation is descriptive, in terms of implementation, it is a survey, and in terms of purpose, it is practical. Figures for this study were collected using a researcher-constructed questionnaire. Its validity was definite by a number of sports management faculty and its reliability calculated 87/0 with Cronbach's alpha. The questionnaire was designed with a Likert scale of 5 values. The participants of the study include physical education students all over the country. Based on geographic regions of the country, five universities selected from the North, South, East, West and center of the country all of which were graduate students of physical education. The statistical sample of the study included graduate. The selection of sample was available by stratified-Stochastic sampling method.

The findings show the importance of prevention methods, especially the knowledgeable observers and judges at various stages of research in occurring academic misconduct.

This study aims to determine the level of unethical behaviours (UBs) of students studying in the field of sports sciences. In this research, the explanatory sequential design was used for mixed research approaches where quantitative and qualitative data collection tools were used. The quantitative part of the study attended 465 Sports Science Faculty students in Kirikkale University during the fall semester of 2017-2018 academic year. Following the quantitative research qualitative data were obtained with five scenarios prepared by the researchers. As a result of the research, it was seen that UBs differ according to gender, class level, and the department of education. In the scenarios presented in the qualitative section of the research, it was determined that students who have higher Unethical Behaviours Climate Scale (UBCS) scores tend to apply more sanctions to the students when they are teachers. It has been observed that male students are more likely to have UBs than women. Not using technological tools in the lessons was defined as UB. The results of the study showed that the source of student UBs could be the teachers or the students themselves.

Examining the Incidences of Academic Misconduct among Students in Higher Institution2019 •
Academic misconduct has been found to be a general problem in the higher educational institutions globally. Few studies on academic misconduct in Nigeria have been concentrated on universities with few on other higher education institutions. Using the theory of planned behaviour, the present study examined the incidences and prevalence of academic misconduct among students. An ex-post facto research design was adopted and a total of 184 students from Management and Computer Sciences were selected for the study. Two by two factorial ANOVA was used to test the hypotheses. Result revealed a significant interaction effects between intentions and perceived behavioural control (F (1, 183) = 4.831; p < 0.05) and between subjective norm, perceived behavioural control and intentions (F (1, 183) = 6.398; p < 0.05) on academic misconduct. The study recommends that school management should put in place efforts that will help in discouraging academic misconduct among students.
Violation of Academic integrity has become one of the major problems in education today. Academic Integrity is an ethical practice that means students are achieving academic success fairly. It suggests that all grades that are achieved are earned honestly. Cheating is one of the most common ways to disobey academic integrity. Statistics exist on various facets of cheating in high schools, colleges and universities and thus violating the academic integrity. The current study is conducted in United Arab Emirates - UAE to check the prevalence of academic integrity (cheating) among the students pursuing undergraduate and postgraduate courses in various universities in UAE. Questionnaire is used to collect the data for the current research. It is divided into three sections. Section A is used to get the demographic information of students. Section B is used to check the attitude of university students towards cheating. Section C consists of questions to find out the factor which influences the student to do cheating in exam. The survey instrument is distributed to 300 students with the approximate returns of 80%. The data is analyzed using SPSS 20 and AMOS 21 to analyze the factors and other results of the study. The results shows that high job position, higher grades, less time to study, cheated in past, difficult course material, cheating environment are factors that encourage students to do cheating. This research is step towards finding the factors that force or motivates the students to do cheating. The current study further helps the management of universities and colleges to formulate the policies. It also gives insights to faculties to formulate strategies that will demotivate the students against cheating. The current research is an attempt to provide insights that can be used to develop a set of academic and administrative strategies to manage academic integrity effectively and efficiently.
A preliminary statistical approach to the academic conduct of a group of students at the University of Beira Interior (Portugal) was performed using data from voluntary participated surveys. Inquiries were made before and after attending training on the meaning and types of plagiarism, citation rules for academic writing and bibliography preparation. The adopted methodology includes the development and application of stated preference inquiries and the statistical analysis of the collected data. A descriptive analysis was performed and a logistic regression model was developed from the data collected before the training to quantify the student's behaviours and establish potential associations relevant to the characterization and future monitoring of academic misconducts. The study found that 90% of the students surveyed had never attended a lecture on plagiarism and academic misconduct and that about 50% of the total were aware of a case of plagiarism committed by colleagues. Results revealed that 80% of the students had committed fraud at least once in a test and/or assignment and 83% of those were never detected. The logistic regression model revealed that students aged 18 to 20 and working students have a statistically significant effect on the Logit of the probability of committing fraud in a test and/or assignment. The results suggest that academic misconduct among students is widespread and that measures must be taken to reduce its prevalence and to ensure a merit-based education system.
