Students who engaged in cheating would have probably violated which of the following six pillars of character more than the others?
a. trustworthinessb. ethicsc. norms and values

TRUSTWORTHINESS.

The six pillars of character was coined by a nonpartisan group of youth development in the year 1992 as “core ethical values that transcend cultural, religious and socioeconomic differences”.

The Six Pillars of Character are: Trustworthiness; Respect; Responsibility; Fairness; Caring and Citizenship.

Of all the 6 pillars, trustworthiness, explains the state of being reliable. Which includes honest communications, not stealing, not CHEATING, not lying, being loyal etc.

Cheating in any form is not an act of trustworthiness. Therefore students who engage in cheating violates TRUSTWORTHINESS.
