| description | The spread of artificial intelligence poses threats to academic activities. Higher education institutions are aware of
academic dishonesty among students and lecturers but cannot offer promising solutions to this problem. This study
examines the publication trends, leading authors and nations, international collaboration and research topics on
academic dishonesty in higher education published between the year 2001 and 2023. It identifies the main countries
contributing research on academic dishonesty. The study utilizes bibliometric analysis of 239 articles from the Scopus
database using TITLE-ABS-KEY approach. Microsoft Excel is used in analyzing the frequency of published materials
using tables and charts. Additionally, the VOSviewer software is used to create bibliometric networks and Harzing’s
Publish or Perish software is used to assess the citation metrics of the articles. The analysis shows that the number of
publications on academic dishonesty is increasing, especially between the year 2020 and 2022. The articles were cited
4129 times, which corresponds to an average of 17.28 citations per article. The results show that the most common
keywords discussed are academic dishonesty, higher education, cheating, students, and e-learning, which can be
grouped into 5 clusters. The United States, Malaysia, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and Australia are among the
countries that contribute to publications in this area. This study delves into publication trends on academic dishonesty,
offering valuable insights into the current research landscape in higher education. By identifying key areas of focus and prominent research contributors, this analysis informs future research efforts aimed at mitigating this pervasive challenge. |
