This is a factual anonymised case presented in a collection of 8 scenarios encountered by the author of the paper in his role as research integrity officer. +
This is the factual scenario of a grant applicant who copied the background section of another professor’s published work without the appropriate referencing and credits. +
This is the factual case of an author whose long excerpts of research output appear in two different articles in two separate journals. +

This presents seven anonymized case of allegations of plagiary and from these draws specific conclusions and advice to authors and administrators. Specifically, case #6 presents the surprise of a doctoral student to see paragraphs of his Master’s thesis appearing verbatim in a magazine without any citations or references to him. +

This is a factual anonymised case presented in a collection of 8 scenarios encountered by the author of the paper in his role as research integrity officer. It is a case of plagiarism through translation to another language. A professor has translated in his own language the work of another professor, without taking all the necessary steps to ensure that intellectual property was acknowledged and all appropriate credits were given. +
The case studies in the Research Integrity Club present short integrity dilemmas.
In each case, an animation illustrates the dilemma, followed by a poll and a guided discussion. +
The case focuses on a conflict of interests and responsible conduct of research. A senior laboratory researcher with some hidden financial interests in a drug company conducts research sponsored by the same company appointing a post-doctoral fellow as a principal investigator in the project. A series of questions are listed to support group discussion or individual reflection on the ethical isssues. +
All medical journals require submission of a contributors’ form signed by all the authors declaring that “Neither this manuscript nor one with substantially similar content under my/our authorship has been published or is being considered for publication elsewhere.” It seems that sometimes authors do not read the declaration thoroughly or perhaps understand the implications of signing it'"`UNIQ--ref-00000000-QINU`"'. This is a factual case.

The Singapore Statement on Research Integrity (2010), authored by the World Conference on Research Integrity (WCRI), is an international framework that sets out global principles for responsible research. Written in English and originating from contributions by scholars—primarily from Global North countries—it seeks to formalise honesty, accountability, professional courtesy, and stewardship as universal standards, linking them to reproducibility, credibility, and public trust in science. The Statement outlines the responsibilities of researchers, institutions, funders, and journals in planning, conducting, publishing, and reviewing research, with provisions for authorship, proper citation, conflict-of-interest management, transparency of methods and data, fair peer review, and responsible supervision. It calls for clear processes to address misconduct, ensuring due process and proportional responses while fostering learning. Education is central, emphasising training in integrity as an essential skill rather than assumed knowledge, and the framework also addresses contemporary challenges such as open science, digital tools, and data management. Practical guidance includes codes of behaviour, checklists, and templates that translate principles into daily practice. By aligning local practices with international norms, it enhances researcher mobility, policy comparability, and equitable access. The Statement targets researchers, institutions, supervisors, and policymakers worldwide, offering both a benchmark for policy and a practical reference for training, compliance, and grant documentation. +
Archaeologists with permission to enter private land notice and record a site of historical and prehistorical importance. The landowner, who had given permission for them to enter his land, later informs them that he hates the federal government and doesn't want this site recorded. They submit the site information to the Bureau of Land Maangement so that the information will not be lost. +
This is a factual case. +
The aim of this article is to provide an organizing scheme for the responsible conduct of research (RCR). The heuristic framework should be helpful in research ethics education. The six domains are: research integrity, collegiality, protection of human subjects, animal welfare, institutional integrity and social responsibility. +
The Slovak Academy of Sciences have developed the ethical code of the conduct of research. The code is available in Slovakian and in English. The code describes:
#General principles
#Principles of scientific work
#Principles for publishing research results
#Principles for assessment, review, evaluation and expert activities
#Principles of behavior towards colleagues and students
#Violation of the ethical principles of research and development
#Process of resolution of contentiuous ethical issues

An anthropologist hired by a hospital questions whether he should record instances of "slow codes" in hospitals, whereby resident doctors were deciding in effect which patients to resuscitate or not. Recording this information has the potential to damage the career prospects of the doctors with whom the anthropologist is embedded. the anthropologist is unsure whether he owes loyalty to his research subjects or the maangement company that has hired him. He is unclear about which cohort are his research subjects. +
