摘要

[目的/意义] 随着互联网的普及以及数字教育资源的广泛使用,学术不端行为呈现出有别于传统形式的新特点以及更为迅猛的发展态势。研究聚焦于社会规范对大学生网络学术不端行为的影响,并探索影响其关系的中介变量,以加深对网络学术不端行为发生机制的认识。[方法/过程] 鉴于互联网环境中学术不端行为的社会性显著增强,选择从微观视角深入考察社会规范如何对网络学术不端行为产生影响。基于社会认知道德理论、道德四成分模型等理论构建感知严重性和道德判断的序列中介效应模型,并利用在上海市3所不同性质高校学生中收集的问卷调查数据对模型进行检验。[结果/结论] 研究发现,社会规范对网络学术不端行为不仅具有显著的直接效应,还具有显著的间接效应;其中的间接效应由两条中介作用途径产生:通过道德判断的独立中介作用;通过感知严重性和道德判断的序列中介作用。相关结果可以为网络学术不端行为的有效预防和治理提供更有针对性的对策,也为审视学术不端行为提供了新视角,丰富了有关学术不端的学术研究文献。

Abstract

[Purpose/significance] With the development of the Internet and extensive use of digital educational resources, academic misconduct is characterized with new features and significant increase. To deepen our understanding of the working mechanism of online academic misconduct, this paper explores how social norm exerts influence on online academic misconduct, and examines the mediating variables in between. [Method/process] Given the increasing social nature of academic misconduct in the Internet environment, we adopt a micro perspective to examine the specific influence mechanism of social norm on online academic misconduct. Drawing upon Bandura’s social cognitive theory of morality and the four-component model by Rest, a sequential mediation model of perceived importance and moral judgement is built and tested with survey data collected in three universities in Shanghai. [Result/conclusion] Results show that social norm exerts significant direct and indirect effects on online academic misconduct. The indirect effect is generated through two mediating paths: the independent mediating effect of moral judgment; the sequential mediating effect of perceived importance and moral judgment. While adding to the literature of academic misconduct by offering new perspective on this issue, the findings can facilitate more accurate and targeted measures to curb and regulate online academic misconduct.
