Abstract: Academic cheating has recently become one of the most problematic issues in higher education. Various approaches have been proposed for dealing with cheating. This regression based approach will use an existing mathematical model to investigate if students compare penalties to gain in grades when make a decision to cheat. It will also investigate the applicability of deterrence and if it is inversely proportional to risk of punishment. This study will also focus on students? reaction towards cheating whether he is caught or never got caught. Besides, this study will investigate if cheating students will have an effect on other students.
