Descriptive data of questionnaires were recorded by using open-ended answers for behaviors and a five-point Likert-type instrument used to identify the reason doing academic integrity violations which ranged strongly disagreed to strongly agreed. There was significant different between gender (p<0.05) but no significant difference between each study programme. In term of correlation, this study found there was relationship between gender and behavior QB7 (r=0.300, p<0.05) related to copy content from another sources. Besides, correlation could be found between QB4 and QV2 (r=0.231, p<0.05) which related to behavior in obtaining content from another student‟s material and make it as their own because of having a lot of assignments to do at the same time. There was another significant correlation between QB8 and QV4 (r=-.186, p<0.05) as students help another person to compose ideas affected by unclear explanation from lecturers.
