The purpose of this study was to construct a psychometric ruler that illustrates university undergraduate education majors' perceptions of academic misconduct. A survey consisting of 38 items that pertain to issues of academic misconduct were administered to an undergraduate sample at a large state university. Utilising Rasch measurement analyses to construct objective measures, students' responses were modeled along a truly linear and equal interval continuum to produce a hierarchy of perceived academic offenses. Results and policy implications are discussed.Downloads
