Cheating in Medical School.
Sierles, Frederick; And Others
Journal of Medical Education, v55 n2 p124-25 Feb 1980
A study to determine the frequency and correlates of cheating among medical students found that cheating is extremely frequent (87.6 percent) among premedical students and less frequent (58.2 percent) but still significant among medical students. The most disturbing finding was the positive correlation between cheating in school and cheating in patient care. (JMD)
