“…The lack of knowledge about academic work and possible different interpretations of academic practices seem to be the main motive for academic fraud. This justifies the claim that academic fraud for some authors should not be regarded as a moral or ethical issue [5][6][7][8], although other works still focus on the dishonesty of pupils [9][10][11][12].…”

“…This does not dismiss the fact that different trends for different areas can be identified, raising the hypothesis that there are different levels of self-efficacy in students from different fields of study [26]. Additionally, the phenomenon of academic fraud is not confined to a particular country, and the problem can be found in Anglo-Saxon countries such as Canada [3] and the US [24]; in European countries such as Bulgaria [6], Portugal [4], Spain [33], Switzerland [34], and Slovenia [35]; in Asian countries such as China [26]; and in other parts of the world such as Saudi Arabia and New Zealand [5], Australia [21], Israel [9], and Russia [36]. However, there may be particularities and some differences between countries in their greater or lesser preponderance, as shown by some studies [37], highlighting the influence of cultural factors and the characteristics of education systems.…”

The perception that academic fraud is widespread in higher education affects the credibility of higher education schools, giving rise to doubts concerning the quality of learning and the students’ preparation for their professional life. Academic misconduct is presently a common research area. However, higher education schools still seem unable to contain academic fraud, given its prevalence and scope. Therefore, understanding students’ perceptions and attitudes remains critical for schools to define effective policies in promoting and defending academic integrity. Towards that aim, the results from a set of focus groups of students from a higher education school are presented. Students do not link academic fraud with unethical professional behaviour, propose more sanctions for those who commit academic fraud, and consider that certain evaluation methods favour unethical behaviour.

Fear is a central emotional response to imminent threats such as the coronavirus-19 disease (COVID-19). The Fear of COVID-19 Scale (FCV-19S) assesses the severity of fear towards COVID-19. The present study examined the psychometric properties of the Arabic version of the FCV-19S. Using a forward-backward translation, the FCV-19S was translated into Arabic. An online survey using the Arabic versions of FCV-19S and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was administered. Reliability and concurrent and confirmatory validity were examined. The dataset consisted of 693 Saudi participants. The internal consistency of the Arabic FCV-19S was satisfactory (α = .88), with sound concurrent validity indicated by significant and positive correlations with HADS (r = .66). The unidimensional structure of the FCV-19S was confirmed. The Arabic version of the FCV-19S is psychometrically robust and can be used in research assessing the psychological impact of COVID-19 among a Saudi adult population. Keywords Coronavirus. COVID-19.

Saudi Arabia The coronavirus 2019 disease (COVID-19) outbreak in December 2019, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is a major global health crisis (Lipsitch et al. 2020). Declared by the World Health Organization as a global pandemic on March 11th, 2020 (Cucinotta and Vanelli 2020), COVID-19 had spread to more than 212 countries and territories since December 2019 until the time of writing this paper.

Background: The seven-item Fear of COVID-19 Scale (FCV-19S) assesses severity of fear of COVID-19 (novel coronavirus). The present study translated the scale into Tamil and tested its psychometric properties so that the scale can be used in Tamil-speaking populations. Methods: The FCV-19S was translated into Tamil following a forward-backward translation procedure. Using an online-based survey, 95 participants completed the Tamil version of the FCV-19S alongside questions about demographic information. Psychometric properties were examined using Partial-Credit Rasch analysis, which was suitable for analyzing a questionnaire of this length with the present sample size. Results: The data fit for the Rasch model was confirmed without the need for any adjustments. Item means were comparable to those reported in other studies, with some evidence of clustering of items, although not sufficient to challenge the unidimensionality of the scale. Reliability was very high (α= 0.93), and there was no evidence of differential item functioning by age, sex, or education.Conclusion: The Tamil version of the FCV-19S has a unidimensional structure with robust psychometric properties. It can thus be used in research assessing the psychological impact of COVID-19 among Tamil-speaking populations. Further studies with larger samples are required to provide population reference values.
