The results of this study show that CEO characteristics in the form of CEO age, educational background, and work experience cannot be used as indicators that can detect financial statement fraud. Meanwhile, some other characteristics that are still the focus of this study, such asCEO’s gender, tenure, and nationality havean influence on indications of financial statement fraud.

The findings of this study indicate that a lack of integrity and religion has a negative impact on the likelihood of academic fraud. This shows that students with higher levels of honesty and religion are less likely to commit academic fraud. While gender did not appear to have a substantial impact on the effect between integrity, religiosity, and the likelihood of academic cheating, both male and female students had similar levels of integrity and religiosity.
