Why and how science students in the United States think their peers cheat more frequently online: perspectives during the COVID-19 pandemic

Academic integrity establishes a code of ethics that transfers over into the job force and is a critical characteristic in scientists in the twenty-first century. A student’s perception of cheating is influenced by both internal and external factors that develop and change through time. For students, the COVID-19 pandemic shrank their academic and social environments onto a computer screen. We surveyed science students in the United States at the end of their first COVID-interrupted semester to understand how and why they believed their peers were cheating more online during a pandemic. Almost 81% of students indicated that they believed cheating occurred more frequently online than in-person. When explaining why they believed this, students touched on proctoring, cheating influences, and extenuating circumstances due to COVID-19. When describing how they believed cheating occurred more frequently online, students touched on methods for cheating and surreptitious behavior. The student reasonings were associated with four theories (game theory, Kohlberg’s theory of moral development, neutralization theory, and planned behavior theory) that have been used to examine academic dishonesty. Our results can aid institutions in efforts to quell student concerns about their peers cheating during emergencies. Interestingly, most student beliefs were mapped to planned behavior theory while only a few students were mapped to neutralization theory, suggesting it was a novel modality of assessment rather than a pandemic that shaped student perceptions.

Hybrid Model of MSMEs for Livestock Hype Product Facing Consumer Sudden Shift on Pandemics

Pandemic covid-19 breakout has a massive impact on the MSMEs sector. The majority of producers could not survive due to unpreparedness to face the economic shock due to declining purchasing power. So that, the research was designed to create a resilient strategy for business through a hybrid model with an analysis of planned behavior theory. The research focuses on livestock products that currently excites the community, intended for role models of agricultural food products as perishable food and susceptible to an unbalanced market. So that, the decline in purchasing power of the consumers is imbalanced with availability and vice versa. The selected products are mozzarella cheese and honey. The research used an interview survey method with producers and consumers. Data analysis used game theory to design a model that conforms to the condition of the business. Results of the research showed that hybrid model of MSMEs for mozzarella and honey (livestock products which are hype during a pandemic) has the optimization of strategy to bring more adaptive business into reality by improvising strategy of popularity for mozzarella product of brand X and improvisation from an advocacy perspective for a honey product of MSMEs brand X. MSMEs products have opportunity to acquire market and compete with big companies in each product because it has superiority that would be able to meet the consumer needs and conform to the purchasing power.

The Effect of Income and Social Status on Interests are not Smoking on Active Smokers

Introduction. Smoking is a phenomenon in society that emerged as an area of interest in research within the last decade, moreover due to the high prevalence in young adults. WHO reported that in 2008, Indonesia held the 3rd position out of 10 countries with highest population and cigarette consumption worldwide. High interest of cigarette consumption due to income and social status of individuals yielded such devastating effects in every aspects of life. High cigarette consumption had caused economic and social burden that never stopped to arise. Aizen and Fishbain described that interest was a good predictor to determine behavioral aspect of cigarette smoking in individual. Planned behavior theory stated that interest or intention were the closest determinant factors of behavior. From the above explanation, there were several factors that could alter one’s interest to quit smoking viewed from income and social status aspects. This research was conducted to determine factors that influenced interest in smoking consumption, including the aspects of income and social status toward the interests of active smokers in Palembang to quit their smoking behavior. Methods: The method used was qualitative research and data were taken by observations, focus group discussion (FGD) and in-depth interview. The informants were 15 active smokers from various backgrounds in Palembang that were selected by purposive sampling technique. In FGD, out of 15 informants, 10 were taken and divided into 2 groups, and the rest 5 informants were chosen for in-depth interview. Results: Based on the three aspects of planned behavior theory, i.e. individual’s interest, subjective social norm, and behavioral control, the result showed that individual’s attitude did not influence the decision of active smokers to quit their smoking behavior, meant as not to quit but more inclined to reduce than to stop. Second, based on subjective social norm, from environment, parents, and peers, the result showed that this aspect could influence active smokers’ interest to quit smoking. Third, based on the aspect of behavioral control by individual’s income, the result showed that the income did not influence active smokers’ interest to quit smoking because they were more driven by their cravings for cigarette. Based on behavioral control by social status, the results showed that educational level and marriage status did have influence on active smokers to their smoking behavior, but not to stop, rather only to reduce. The aspect of jobs also did not have any influence on active smokers to quit their smoking behavior. Conclusion: The aspect of income and job-related social status did not have any influence on active smokers to quit their smoking behavior, while social status viewed from educational level and marriage status yielded the influence on active smokers, but more inclined to reduce than to stop.

Effects of Self-Management Intervention Programs Based on the Health Belief Model and Planned Behavior Theory on Self-Management Behavior and Quality of Life in Middle-Aged Stroke Patients

Objectives. To study the effect of self-management intervention programs based on the health belief model and planned behavior theory on self-management behavior and quality of life in middle-aged stroke patients. Most of the intervention studies on the self-management of middle-aged stroke patients focus on traditional Chinese medicine nursing and continuous nursing, lacking theoretical support. In particular, there is a lack of interventions based on the integration of two or more theories. Method. The middle-aged stroke patients were divided into the control group and the intervention group according to the disease area. A total of 70 patients were included, and 35 patients were included in the control group and the intervention group, respectively. The control group received routine neurological treatment and health education during hospitalization and continued to receive routine health education for 3 months after discharge. On this basis, the intervention group received an intervention program based on an integrated model of health beliefs and planned behavior theory, including 3 health education sessions during hospitalization and 3 months of postdischarge health education. A self-administered stroke general information questionnaire was used to collect basic information on patients’ age, gender, and comorbidities. The Stroke Self-Management Behavior Rating Scale and Stroke-Specific Quality-of-Life Scale (SS-QOL) were used to evaluate the management behavior and quality of life of the patients in both groups before and after the intervention. Results. Before the intervention, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of self-management score, quality of life total score, and scores of each dimension P > 0.05 . At different periods after the intervention, the total score of self-management, total score of quality of life, and scores of each dimension were significantly higher in both groups than before the intervention P < 0.05 . In particular, the self-management and quality of life scores of the intervention group were higher than those of the control group at 1 and 3 months after the intervention P < 0.05 . Conclusion. The self-management intervention scheme based on the integrated model of health belief and planned behavior theory is beneficial to improve the self-management ability and quality of life of stroke patients. It provides basis for clinical nurses to further improve the self-management ability and quality of life of stroke patients. Our findings may also serve as a reference for caregivers in other countries to improve the self-management and quality of life of stroke patients.

UNDERSTANDING THE FINTECH CONTINUANCE INTENTION OF INDONESIAN USERS: THE MODERATING EFFECT OF GENDER

This research attempt to analyze risk and benefit factors as well as their influence on sustainability intention of FinTech. We elucidate the Planned Behavior Theory by including the perceived benefits and perceived risk variables to investigate its effect on intention to continue using FinTech. We also examined whether or not men and women are affected differently by the benefits and risk they perceive when using FinTech. Data were collected through online surveys, then being analyzed using GSCA. The results reveal perceived benefits are affected significantly by the convenience aspect and deliver a significant effect on FinTech continuance intention. The risk perceived by FinTech users is affected the most by legal risk. This study proves that gender is able to moderate the perceived risk influence on the intention to continue using FinTech, especially in the female user group.
