Popis: |
Previous research on the personality correlates of cheating behavior has found that both need for approval and test anxiety are positively correlated with cheating. In both instances the explanation has been that subjects high on these measures cheat more because they are more concerned about negative evaluation and poor performance. The present study sought to extend this pattern of results to a direct measure of fear of negative evaluation. Contrary to the hypothesis, subject scores on the Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale were found to be negatively correlated with cheating. An explanation is offered in terms of situational differences between the present study and previous studies. |
