Out of genuine curiosity, what is your culture of origin? Would you say this perspective is widespread on your culture? Do you have a feel for whether it is more or less so than others?
- Our_Benefactors 3y agoThe poster is Chinese. Cheating is absolutely pervasive in Chinese culture. They believe that either all other cultures hold the same views as they do about cheating, or that those countries and individuals are naive and stupid for not cheating. https://archive.is/3dcjH https://archive.is/3dcjH

- _cs2017_ 3y agoIt's a questionable study. Giving the same amount of money to a person from the UK and China makes no sense given the difference in income between these countries. Also, this conflates factors other than cheating, such as the respect respondents have for the people administering the test, the degree to which respondents treat this whole thing seriously, etc. The fact that the study says what we'd expect, doesn't imply it's a good study.
- throwaway_ta 3y agoFWIW, the 70% number of Chinese cheating students matches almost exactly with my own experience as a teaching assistant. I believe that most TAs with a sufficiently large class have made similar experiences. In general, cheating is much more rampant and organized than most people would expect. Most institutions just do not care because catching and punishing cheaters is a lot of work with little short term benefit.

- sureglymop 3y agoAs a student from Europe.. I find it pretty shocking. However, I even overheard some classmates who were also trying to cheat recently. My first reaction to reading the comment was thinking if ethics are not at all taken into consideration. However, if the poster is from China it makes some sense to me. The educational system in parts of china is extremely competitive starting at a young age even.
