Abstract

In recent years, the attention of the world scientific community has been drawn to the search and solution of problems related to overcoming corruption phenomena in all spheres of public life. Corruption as a socio-economic, ethical, moral phenomenon and philosophical-legal construct is studied at the interdisciplinary level, because its origins are primarily in the motivated behavior of an active and integral participant and founder of public and state institutions – a person. Our research deals with the study of the sources of corruption risks in the educational-scientific process at the institutional level of the education and science system of Ukraine: school, institute, university. We conducted a social survey to establish personal attitudes to corruption actions by officials and participants of the educational process, awareness of key concepts and principles of academic integrity, providing a subjective assessment on the effectiveness of functioning at the level of the respondent’s institution of the internal anti-corruption system. Particular attention was paid to establishing the content of the subjective-evaluative opinion of the respondents on the causes and existence of corruption in educational institutions of Ukraine. The aggregation of individual factors, which are segmented by certain areas of professional and life activity of the respondents: financial-economic, professional-career, socio-political, educational-preventive was carried out through the use of factor analysis. This allowed to reduce the dimension of the initial space of the studied causes and symptoms and combine them according to the evaluative judgments of the respondents into certain leading factors that characterize the common source of arising corruption risks in the educational-scientific process at the institutional level of the system of education and science of Ukraine.
