 |Title=Institutional dealing with scientific misconduct
-|Is About=In this article three categories of causal factors are distinguished: Deceit as an individual vice, an existing culture of sloppiness and irresponsibility within certain disciplines or institutes, and the pernicious influence of today’s research climate with its pressure for production and the ‘metrification’ of performance and output. Suggestions for dealing with cases of misconduct, resulting from these three distinct views, are presented and discussed.
+|Is About=This is a factual case.

Proper disciplinary actions and preventive measures should be based on an analysis of the possible motives and causes underlying such misbehaviour.
