据罗格斯大学的麦卡比说，学生们作弊的很大一个原因就是他们看到同学总能侥幸蒙混过关。他说：“他们目睹了别人作弊，但没有任何人采取任何措施加以阻止。他们想知道原因，为什么某些人能找到一份好工作或者升入更好的学校，只是因为没有人注意到他们的作弊行为？”

    McCabe queried hundreds of professors around the country and found that among those who had discovered students cheating, 40 percent never reported a single incident. "Many think it's a hassle," he says. "Some worry that the school may not back them up and they will wind up defending their accusation against the student."
