Journal Title: Asian Journal of Management Sciences and Education - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
This article highlights initiatives taking in the act of corruption between applicants and schools authorities in the Cameroon educational system during students’ registration. An odds ratios analysis for the entire country and by region showed that in about 66.67% of cases in this educational system, the initiative for corruption comes from the Heads of institutions, and it is led by some motives such as the limited seats, the school facilities, the poor quality of applications and the compulsory requirement to buy school items. However, despite the fact that the magnitude of the initiative for the corrupt action by the teaching staff is more important than that of applicants in all regions, we nevertheless highlighted their characteristics through a Poisson regression. In particular the empirical analysis revealed that urban and rich people take more initiative than rural and poor people as far as corrupt actions are concerned.
