Everyday, artificial intelligence (AI) is being increasingly integrated into the teaching and learning process at Russian universities. The high level of quality of feedback from AI tools leads to the spread of AI plagiarism – unauthorized borrowing of generative AI materials – among students. The purpose of this study is to: a) highlight aspects that determine students’ understanding of the issues of compliance with author’s ethics and the problem of plagiarism when interacting with generative AI; b) develop a questionnaire to determine students’ understanding of the issues of compliance with author’s ethics and the problem of AI plagiarism; c) conduct an online survey of university students, analyze and discuss the results obtained. The paper highlights five aspects that determine students’ understanding of the issues of compliance with author’s ethics and the problem of AI plagiarism when completing educational assignments and preparing research texts: a) students’ general understanding of the issues of compliance with author’s ethics and the problem of plagiarism in an academic environment; b) students’ experience of AI tools for educational purposes; c) students’ understanding of the problem of AI plagiarism and attitude towards borrowing materials from generative AI; d) teachers’ actions to prevent AI plagiarism among students; e) the policy of educational organizations regarding student compliance with ethics and AI plagiarism. An online questionnaire was developed to determine the degree to which students understand the issues of compliance with copyright ethics and the problem of AI plagiarism. 1,599 students from 29 universities of the Russian Federation took part in the survey. The results showed that in general, in the Russian student community, plagiarism is a widespread social phenomenon, many types of which are perceived by young people as a norm of academic behavior. Despite the relatively high awareness of students in the field of AI technologies, the extremely rare use by teachers of specialized subject disciplines of AI tools in the educational process I’d the reason for the current low level of spread of AI plagiarism in the academic environment. At the same time, it is necessary to state that students lack a systematic understanding of exactly how they can “legally” use generative AI materials and what exactly will be considered AI plagiarism. According to students, the importance of understanding the issues of compliance with author ethics and the problem of AI plagiarism will depend, on the one hand, on the actions of teachers to explain to students the rules for using generative AI materials, and on the other hand, the presence in universities of a regulatory framework regulating the field and the extent to which students use AI in the educational process.

Numerous All-Russian surveys of the last 5-7 years, revealing the attitude of various au diences to the Unified State Exam (USE), present a generally more positive attitude of young people to the USE against the background of a generally skeptical Russian population towards this tool of transition from secondary school to higher education. In this regard, it is of particular interest to study the opinions of those who faced this examination procedure (graduates who passed the unified state exam, as well as their parents).During the online survey conducted on March 04, 2024, 711 people (45.3% men, 54.7% women, M = 34.73 years) were interviewed who replied that they and/or their child participated in the exam procedure. Respondents expressed their degree of agreement with the statements of the questionnaires: condemning corruption and attitudes towards the USE.An analysis of the data obtained showed that respondents from the province significantly more often agreed that the USE significantly removes financial barriers to admission to Russian universities. Women were significantly more likely to agree that the USE provides capable graduates from different social strata and from any region with the opportunity to enroll in an educational institution whose curriculum and specialty correspond to the applicant’s career orientation.Younger respondents also significantly more often agreed that the USE provides the bright high school graduates from different social strata of Russia to enroll in any university. Those who were more likely to agree that the USE helped them get into the university they wanted to enter were significantly more likely to agree with all items of the questionnaire on attitudes towards the USE as an anti-corruption instrument. In addition, the same positive correlation was found between the degree of condemnation of corruption and the attitude towards the USE as a tool for combating corruption, that is, respondents who condemn corruption more agree that the USE is a tool for combating corruption.Thus, we have shown that the unified state exam eliminates financial barriers to admission to Russian universities, that is, it is an anti-corruption tool, which was more often agreed by respondents who entered universities from regional and district centers, women and youth, as well as respondents who more disapprove of corruption.
