The Relationship Between High School Students' Stressors And Tendency To Cheat

The cheating has attracted more and more attention.In the latest research,it is found that cheating presents the characteristics of the new era,such as the universalization of cheating,the diversity of cheating methods and the diversification of cheating subjects.Shandong province has also paid more and more attention to cheating in various exams in recent years.All these suggest that we need to pay more attention to and think about cheating,especially among high school students who are the main force in the college entrance examination.As is known to all the high school students are faced with confusion and pressure from entering school,interpersonal relationship,family,physical and psychological aspects who are in the transition from childhood to youth.Existing experimental studies have confirmed that under the pressure of parents,teachers or class groups,the number of primary and middle school students cheating has a significant increase.So many stressful events that high school students face can also predict the tendency of high school students to cheat to some extent.Therefore,the relationship between stressors and cheating tendencies in high school students is worth exploring.Numerous studies have confirmed that stressor events can awaken individual anxiety to a certain extent.A study of college students found that excessive stress triggered anxiety and other negative emotions,leading to more students taking exams in a negative way,such as cheating in exams.Therefore,in this study,the relationship between stressors and cheating tendency of high school students was discussed from the current situation of high school students' stressful events,and the mechanism of high school students' anxiety level between the two was also discussed.In this study,we used the stressors scale for middle school students(SSMSS),the state-trait anxiety inventory(STAI)and the cheating tendency questionnaire to explore the influencing factor model of high school students' cheating tendency from two aspects: stressors(external factors)and anxiety levels(internal factors).In order to find an effective way to reduce the tendency of cheating.A total of 1351 valid questionnaires were collected.SPSS21.0,Amos24.0 and Process are adopted to carry out data analysis.The main conclusions are as follows:(1)The high school sophomore students have the greatest pressure,and the pressure for boys mainly focuses on study pressure,parenting style,self-physical and mental pressure,and social and cultural pressure,while the pressure for girls mainly focuses on study pressure,family pressure and peer pressure,especially peer pressure.The senior three students have the highest level of anxiety,which is mainly manifested as state anxiety.The students in grade one have the highest tendency to cheat,while students in grade three have a rational understanding of cheating;while students in grade two are the most conservative and cautious.(2)State anxiety and trait anxiety play a partial mediating role between teacher pressure,learning pressure and cheating intention,while a complete mediating role between self-physical and mental pressure,parenting style pressure,peer pressure and family pressure and cheating intention.(3)State anxiety plays a partial mediating role between sociocultural pressure and cheating intention,while trait anxiety plays a complete mediating role between sociocultural pressure and cheating intention.
