This $138,000 two-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program will support a naturalistic and experimental investigation of cheating in high schools. The research will be conducted in Edison, New Jersey from March 2022 through February 2024. As part of its mission to promote basic research in the social, behavioral and economic sciences, this grant will fund a study to contribute new scientific insights about academic integrity among secondary school students. The grantee will employ naturalistic observation and controlled experiments to examine factors influencing cheating and ethical decision-making. Outcomes may help inform policies and practices to foster integrity in educational assessment.
