dc.description.abstract | This graphic depicts the intersection and overlap between various types of commercial academic fraud and cheating. There are four overlapping categories including: (1) degree mills (i.e., fake and fraudulent diplomas, transcripts, reference letters, and other academic and professional documents; (2) contract cheating (i.e., outsourced student academic work such as term paper mills, assignment completion services, thesis writing services, and student proxy services; (3) admissions fraud (i.e., impersonation and fraud services for standardized admissions testing, language proficiency testing, and unethical educational agents); and (4) paper mills (i.e., manufactured scholarly and scientific publications and authorship for sale.) At the heart of all of this is intentional academic fraud. | en_US |
