The cheating perceptions of cheated and not cheated students were examined by
using “t” test. According to the table 5 and 6, there is a significant relationship
between factors 1, 3, 4 and whether they cheated or not at the level of the 5%
significance (p<0,05). Students’ cheating perception differs in terms of factor 1.
Student who cheated before agree more strongly on variables of factor 1 than not
cheated students. The result is reasonable, for all of the variables indicate possible
behavior of a cheated. It was expected that cheated must agree on them. Also,
cheated students disagree with not cheated students on factors 3 and 4. Cheated
students don’t see cheating behavior as an offence, debility and unethical behavior

contrary to not cheated students. Further, they have different opinions to prevent
cheating, for example; they are strongly opposed to punishing cheating,
administering exams in less crowd classrooms and with more supervisors.

There is no significant relationship between factors 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and
whether cheated or not at the 5% level of significance (p>0,05). These
results show that cheated and not cheated have the same cheating
perception about the lesson based reasons for cheating, the attitudes of the
management of the school and academic staff against cheating, the opinions
about the cheated student, the student-based reasons that cause cheating,
the management and supervisor-based reasons that cause cheating and the
role of the questions format to prevent cheating. The factors and their
explained variables were exhibited below.
