The effects of legalized cheating in the economics classroom

Joel M. Potter and John L. Scott

Chapter 17 in New Developments in Economic Education, 2014, pp 199-208 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Using a value-neutral classroom experiment, the chapter examines potential grade improvements from cheating by removing the stigma from the activity and by allowing extensive access to others' answers. The authors find that students do not appraise partners' answers as correct or incorrect and strategically change their answers based on this information.
