Abstract
The major aim of this project was to carry out an investigation into the influence of students’ attitudinal behaviours towards examination malpractice on their academic performance, in Surulere Local Government Area of Lagos State.
In the study, three hypotheses were postulated and tested. The survey design was adopted in this research work in order to carry out an assessment of public opinion of the respondents on the attitudinal behaviour of students towards examination malpractice especially in English and Mathematics. The questionnaire technique was used to collect necessary data. The stratified sampling technique was used to collect necessary data. The stratified sampling technique was adopted to select the respondents (male/female) students which represented the entire population of the students in the selected secondary schools.
The t-test statistical tool was used to determine whether there was significant difference between the students who involve themselves in examination malpractice especially in Mathematics and English Language subjects and those who do not.
The result of the findings were:
1. Students’ involvement in examination malpractice does not significantly affect their academic performance in mathematics.
2. There will be a significant difference between the involvement of male and female students’ examination malpractice.
3. There is a significant influence of students’ behaviour towards examination malpractice on their academic performance in English language subject.
