Abstract
This research was conducted with the aim of explaining the relationship between academic entitlement and impulsivity with academic dishonesty of high school students. The research method was correlational. The statistical population was made up of all high school students of Miandoab city in the academic year 1400-1401, and 272 people (137 boys and 135 girls) were selected as a statistical sample using a multi-stage cluster random method. In order to collect data, questionnaires of academic entitlement (Chunning and Campbell, 2009), impulsivity (Patton, Stanford and Barrett, 1995) and academic dishonesty (McCabe and Trevino, 1996) were used. Data analysis was done using Pearson's correlation coefficient and multivariate regression analysis by step-by-step method in SPSS23 software. The findings showed that there is a significant positive relationship between academic entitlement (r=0.43) and impulsivity (r=0.50) with academic dishonesty (p<0.001). The results of the regression analysis showed that academic entitlement and impulsivity can explain 33% of the variance of academic dishonesty; Therefore, it can be concluded that academic entitlement and impulsivity play an important role in predicting academic dishonesty of high school students. It is also suggested that those involved in the field of education should inform teachers and students about the variables of academic competence and impulsivity as effective factors in the process of classroom education to reduce the possibility of academic dishonesty.
