Evidence¶

Ortiz-Bonnin 2025¶

Ortiz-Bonnin, S., & Blahopoulou, J. (2025). Chat or cheat? Academic dishonesty, risk perceptions, and ChatGPT usage in higher education students. Social Psychology of Education. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11218-025-10080-2

q3 · i1 · associational · r2

Spearman correlation in the 468-student survey (Table 1); the mediation model's path PAD → Perceived risk is β = 0.12, p =.007 (Table 2). The article reports "PAD is significantly and positively related to perceived risk ( ρ = 0.13, p <.05)" — a small correlation (|r| = .13).

"PAD is significantly and positively related to perceived risk ( ρ = 0.13, p <.05)."
