Abstract
本研究從動機觀點切入，採用個人成就目標與學業自我效能理論瞭解動機變項及兩種作弊接受度（學業作弊、被動作弊）之關係。據此，本研究目的為：一、瞭解國中生對兩種作弊行為的接受程度現況；二、探討個人成就目標與兩種作弊接受度之關係；三、考驗學業自我效能在上述關係中的調節效果。為達成上述目的，本研究抽取938 位七至九年級國中生進行施測，並以數學科為領域，蒐集資料以結構方程模式進行分析。研究結果發現：一、男生對兩種作弊行為的接受度均略高於女生；八、九年級學生對兩種作弊行為的接受度略大於七年級學生；二、個人成就目標能預測兩種作弊接受度，其中趨向精熟目標能降低學生對兩種作弊行為的接受度，逃避表現目標則與上述結果相反，而趨向表現目標僅能正向預測被動作弊接受度；三、學業自我效能會調節個人成就目標與作弊接受度之關係：當學習者知覺有高學業自我效能時，逃避表現目標無法預測兩種作弊接受度；當學習者知覺為低學業自我效能時，會提升逃避表現目標對兩種作弊接受度的正向預測力。本研究依據研究結果提出建議，以作為國中教學輔導與未來研究之參考。
This study was conducted on the basis of motivation theories and adopted theoretical conceptsfrom achievement goal theory and self-efficacy to explore the motivational variables related to theacceptability of two types of cheating behaviors, namely academic cheating and passive cheating,among Taiwanese junior high school students in the subject of mathematics. The aims of the studywere threefold: first, to understand the degree of acceptability of the two types of cheating behaviorsamong Taiwanese students; second, to investigate the relationships between personal achievementgoals and the acceptability of the two types of cheating; and third, to test whether these relationshipsare moderated by academic self-efficacy. Nine hundred thirty-eight seventh-to-ninth-gradeTaiwanese students (473 boys; 23 missing values) participated in the survey, and the researchersapplied the technique of structural equation modeling for data analysis. The results indicated thatboys were slightly more accepting of the two types of cheating behaviors than girls, and eighth- andninth-grade students, regardless of gender, were more accepting of both cheating behaviors thanseventh-grade students. Moreover, it was found that personal achievement goals can effectively predict the two types of cheating behaviors, which can be negatively predicted by mastery-approachgoals and positively predicted by performance-avoidance goals. In particular, performance-approachgoals only positively predicted individuals’ acceptance of passive cheating. Finally, it was revealedthat academic self-efficacy moderates the relationship between personal achievement goals andindividuals’ acceptance of cheating behaviors. Specifically, a high level of academic self-efficacyperceived by individuals was associated with a decrease in the negative predictive power of students’adoption of performance-avoidance goals with respect to the acceptability of both cheating behaviors.A low level of academic self-efficacy perceived by individuals was associated with an increase inthe negative predictive power of students’ adoption of performance-avoidance goals with respect tothe acceptability of both cheating behaviors. Based on the findings, relevant recommendations areproposed as a reference for further research, teaching practices, and junior high school counseling.
