The Importance of Honesty in the Pandemic

When we don't think anybody is looking we're more likely to round up or down. It's interesting because of the pandemic technology has changed a lot with how tests in particular are administered. Before the pandemic they caught people cheating on fewer than 1% of the exams that they administered but then the rate rose to above 8%. Wow and eightfold increase. But I should say two things about that. These are students who know they are being watched. So you could imagine circumstances in which the cheating is much much higher.
