Zusammenfassung:Few studies in mathematics education explicitly address ethical issues arising from student interactions. The ethical concerns held by students are expressed in their words, actions, and interactions.

We investigate the basis for determining ethical behaviour, consider the relationship between truth and trust, and explore how ethical concerns can be addressed pedagogically.
