Research Integrity Practices in Science Europe Member Organizations
What is this about?
This report presents the results of a survey of Scientific Europe member organisations, undertaken in 2014 by the Working Group on Research Integrity. It maps existing policies, procedures and practices for promoting research integrity and builds upon this to make a number of key recommendations for improving research integrity including processes and policies, awareness raising, training, and collaboration.
Why is this important?
Research integrity is at the core of the research endeavour. It is the basis for researchers’ trust in each other and in the research record and, equally importantly, society’s trust in research. There are many reasons to take research integrity seriously including research excellence and an unsullied research record; continuing societal support for public investment in research; avoiding harmful impacts and research waste etc.
