Abstract

The present study examined the cheating behavior in competitive and noncompetitive situations of 40 college students classified as Type A (16 women, 24 men) and 40 as Type B (19 women, 21 men). Type A-scoring students were more likely to cheat than Type B-scoring students irrespective of competition. The results suggest that in some situations, especially where expectations for success cannot be met, Type A-scoring students may cheat to achieve success.

摘要

本研究调查了40名被归类为A型（16名女性，24名男性）和40名被归类为B型（19名女性，21名男性）的大学生在竞争和非竞争情境下的作弊行为。无论竞争与否，A型得分的学生比B型得分的学生更有可能作弊。结果表明，在某些情况下，尤其是在无法实现成功期望时，A型得分的学生可能会通过作弊来取得成功。
