Home environment refers to the conditions where we live.
The old saying “The most important work you do takes place
with in the walls of your home”. Children and young adults
learn a large portion of their knowledge at home. Some
homes have many activities that stimulate children thinking
as well as computer, books and puzzles. Parents may be
heavily invested in their children cognitive development and
spend time with them on learning. Academic dishonesty is
more likely to occur with parental pressure to get good
grades (Taylor et aI. 2002) [18]. For some adolescents,
parental pressure is high at this age in regards to academics
(Strom & Strom, 2007) [17]. Adolescents sometimes take risks
to please their parents or perform higher than their siblings or
peers. Academic cheating is the result because adolescents
believe that if they cheat then they are going to get the grade
that they desire or that their parents desire
