The finding that affiliated participants were less concerned about lack of values supports previous findings that fraternities and sororities are incompatible with higher education goals and evidence that members engage in higher levels of unethical behaviors.
“This result supports not only previous findings about underlying assumptions that fraternities and sororities are presumably incompatible with greater goals of higher education and ideas of academia but also evidence that members of fraternal organizations typically engage in higher levels of unethical behaviors than do nonmembers (Maisel, 1990;Martin et al., 2011;McCabe & Bowers, 1996).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
