Abstract

Integrity, a moral quality in Ho Chi Minh Ideology, is an important issue in the higher education setting as student academic misbehavior is a major problem for colleges and universities. Under the influence of Ho Chi Minh Ideology, students of Hanoi National University of Education have been working toward the quality of integrity to sustain an educational environment that encourages integrity. This article presents the findings of a study (with the methods of questionnaire and group interviews) involving 255 students from the Faculty of Psychology and Education, which looked at how students' perceptions of plagiarism changed between the school year 2016-2017 (Group I) and 2020-2021 (Group II). The results show that the student's perception of plagiarism between groups I and II has differentiated from each other in their understanding of plagiarism. The key factors that influence their perceptions of plagiarism, according to the results obtained, are primarily from subjective aspects. According to the findings, lecturers' participation in mentoring students in academic skills is critical to prevent plagiarism, besides developing students' self-discipline.
