In an academic institution, the plagiarism is a major part and important issue among the Graduate students. Plagiarism can be a serious crime and danger afflicting publication of research work worldwide. Similarly, Academic integrity (AI) contraventions of plagiarism also increased nowadays among the students, research scholars and academicians. Due to this reason, this study aims to concentrate to relate Academic Integrity related to plagiarism and the seriousness of these issues. The proposed study reveals about the quantitative and qualitative analysis of Academic Integrity and Plagiarism among the Post Graduate student from various Deemed Universities of Chennai City. This study provides the review on AI and Plagiarism based on the category of gender. It is hoped that the outcomes of this analysis may be wont to perceive the problems of educational dishonesty and the ways of development in Plagiarism developed which supports the scholars so as to scale back its occurrences.

In summary, the academic integrity literature suggests a possibility that SEPIB may have broader reaching effects than the traditionally examined learning out-comes and may actually influence academic integrity decisions. Based on the SEPIB and academic integrity literature, I hypothesized that students who commit academic dishonesty will have lower evaluative perceptions of their instructors than students who have not committed academic dishonesty. METHOD Participants The respondent pool, taken from 1,390 students, were students enrolled in a variety of courses at a large (approximately 18,000 undergraduate students) regional col-lege in the West. Of the original pool, 1,369 had participated in a test or other type of graded assignment when the survey was conducted, thereby having had an opportu-nity to have committed acts of academic dishonesty. Of these 1,369 students, 281 (20.5%) reported committing an act of academic dishonesty in the course in which the survey was conducted. Ages of the students ranged from 16 to 65, with the majority (70.2%) being 18 to 22 years of age. The sample included 564 men (43.3%) and 737 (56.6%) women. All college class levels were represented: 26.0% were lst-year students, 20.4% were sophomores, 28.3% were juniors, 23.7% were seniors, and 0.8% were graduate students. In an open-ended response question, students reported 38 dif-ferent majors. Measures Academic integrity. Items regarding types of academic dishonesty were compiled from previous surveys (with particular reliance on Barnett & Dalton, 1981; Bowers, 1964; Jendrek, 1992; Oaks, 1975; Singhal, 1982; Stevens, 1984; Wright & Kelly, 1974). Nineteen types of dishonest acts were selected and divided into two categories: tests or quizzes (see Table 1) and other activities (see Table 2). A determination of whether a student committed academic dishonesty in the course in which the survey was administered was based on whether the student responded yes to any of the 19 items listed in Tables 1 and 2. If students responded yes to a spe-cific behavior, they were also asked to indicate how frequently they had engaged in this behavior in the course. All students who answered no to all of the items were placed in the "not admitting to academic dishonesty in the course" category. SEPIB. Because SEPIB was assessed using four 5-point scales ranging from 1 (good, fair, worthless, negative) to 4 (bad, unfair, valuable, positive; see

Teaching Implications

The teachers' self-efficacy, both personal and general, has a profound effect on students' learning. This study investigated the influence on education students' perceptions of their experience as teaching interns of Personal Teaching Efficacy and General Teaching Efficacy. The participants were 196 undergraduates and graduate students who were preparing for or active as interns in teaching or were teachers. There was a significant effect between Personal Teaching Efficacy and General Teaching Efficacy scores, with all respondents scoring higher on the former scale. A significant interaction indicated that students who had not completed internships scored significantly higher on General Teaching Efficacy than either students who had just completed internships or those who were engaged in teaching. Implications are discussed.

Graduate students have become the driving force of scientific research at Chinese universities. Therefore, further work is needed to understand what influences postgraduate students' academic integrity. Using the theory of planned behavior, this study investigated the relationships between postgraduates' attitude toward academic integrity, social norms (subjective, descriptive, and moral), perceived behavioral control, and intentions, and examined the moderating role of social identity in the relationship between social norms and intentions. We conducted a survey with 1,256 Chinese biomedical postgraduate students, and analyzed the data with structural equation modeling. The results show that attitude, subjective norms, descriptive norms, and perceived behavioral control influenced students' academic integrity-related behavioral intentions. The model explained over half of the variance in intentions, indicating that attitude, subjective norms, descriptive norms, and perceived behavioral control were the main variables influencing academic integrity-related behaviors. The theory of planned behavior can be applied in research on postgraduates' academic integrity.

Background: This article examines the phenomenon of academic integrity during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, with particular reference to emergency online assessments in 2020.Aim: It explores academic dishonesty, cheating and plagiarism of university students during emergency remote online assessment, from the perspective of South African students.Setting and Methodology: The authors explore the approaches of different universities worldwide, as well as the extant literature on the topic. An examination of the current literature related explicitly to the COVID-19 online assessments reveals a dearth of engagement by researchers in the South African context. In order to address this lacuna, the authors rely on data generated from an institutional forum on academic dishonesty at a University in South Africa. It focuses specifically on the voices of students presented during the forum, which explained both why students are dishonest and ways to curb dishonesty.Results and Conclusion: The data generated show whilst some students were dishonest due to pandemic-related issues (like lack of monitoring), there are also other reasons, such as lack of time management, feeling overwhelmed and stressed and struggling with technology that contributes to student dishonesty. Students suggest that assessments be approached differently online to curb academic dishonesty. The paper concludes by providing some fundamental changes needed to address academic dishonesty.

Regardless of the discipline or institution in which scientific research will be conducted, the "method» is present. It remains fundamental of all research work that can inevitably affect problem-solving, development of the nation, and threaten quality of life. This is an exploratory study on research methods used in graduation projects in the following disciplines (health sciences, engineering, biological and agronomic sciences, and social sciences). The method used in this work is based on:(a) semi-structured survey by interviewing supervisors of final dissertations and theses in different selected disciplines (b) systematic analysis of the fifty-research work of graduate students. The works obtained from the libraries of the University Hassan II of Casablanca in different disciplines, submitted between 2014 and 2018. The parts of the empirical phase were analyzed, according to the processes and concepts of each discipline, to highlight the elements of the research method. The findings indicated the influence of the national scientific production by the design of the research method. The data collection and analysis are the sections that may affect the integrity of the research method. Our contribution is to remedy the standardization of the method and adapting it to the contexts of the needs of different disciplines.

This study aimed to investigate the student perceptions of plagiarism and the reasons that led to plagiarism in the students’ assignments. The population of the study included the students of English Education Department at UIN Ar-Raniry Banda Aceh, with 166 students randomly selected as the sample. Questionnaire was used as the instrument for collecting data. The data were then analyzed with the SPSS in order to obtain their descriptive statistics. The results of the study showed that there were various students’ perceptions about the notion of plagiarism and the underlying reasons for their plagiarism. It was generally understood that plagiarism wa the use of words/ideas of others recognized as one’s own. Further, the major causes of plagiarism in the assignments were due to lack of English language skills and lack of time management. In addition, the behaviors of lecturers and the university involvement in socializing the concept of plagiarism also became the causes for the higher proportion of academic dishonesty among the students. These findings are expected to be the input for the creation of campus policy so that academic integrity and better lecture system can be achieved in any university.
