It is more important than ever to deal with the effects of research misconduct on society and the economy. When research misconduct happens, e.g. when research is not conducted in accordance to the highest standards, public trust in science is affected, making people less willing to accept and believe in new ideas and innovations. It also slows down progress and discourages private actors from investing in innovation. On a personal level, those involved can suffer damage to their careers and well-being, which also affects their families and colleagues. Organizations connected to the misconduct or responsible for dealing with it may face damage to their reputation and financial losses.'"`UNIQ--ref-00000001-QINU`"' +
Research administrators have an important role in promoting research integrity and bringing solutions to problems and conflicts. For accomplishing this work, administrators need to have a set of skills and knowledge which are presented in this module. +

Whilst some publishers allow or encourage suggestions for reviewers, one needs to be careful at how they go about this often controversial practice. Journals in general have a transparent policy and set of guidelines on peer-reviewing. Some publishing bodies offer comprehensive sections on peer-[https://www.wiley.com/network/researchers/being-a-peer-reviewer reviewing] +
The Regulation on Ethics in Research and Publishing' is important because it ensures credibility and trust in research by providing both preventive and corrective guidance. It prevents misconduct by educating researchers on standards, and offers frameworks for addressing violations fairly. In today’s interconnected research environment, having shared ethical codes strengthens international collaboration and consistency. For governments, institutions, and the public, this document demonstrates commitment to transparency, fairness, and societal responsibility. It is not just a guideline but a foundation for safeguarding the reliability of research outcomes. +
This ethical framework matters because AI and robotics are increasingly integrated into critical decisions in society yet they pose complex ethical challenges related to fairness, accountability, transparency, and human dignity. By offering practical, structured approaches to embed ethics into design and governance, the report helps avoid harm before it occurs, encourages responsible innovation, and supports the adoption of technologies in ways that align with societal values. It is also valuable for standardization and policy harmonization at national and EU levels, contributing to coherent regulation and governance systems. In addition, it strengthens education and training for practitioners and stakeholders, equipping them with the tools to recognize and address ethical dilemmas throughout the lifecycle of AI and robotics systems. +
An author realized a paper had plagiarized his thesis. It took the journal four years to retract it. +
This case demonstrates that even famous journals might publish plagiarised material. It also shows that sometimes it might take years before a flawed article is retracted. +
Careful research planning helps to eliminate potential problems and increases the validity of the findings. +
By providing a focus for discussion, cases help staff involved in research to define or refine their own standards, to appreciate alternative approaches to identifying and resolving ethical problems, and to develop skills for dealing with hard problems on their own'"`UNIQ--ref-00000001-QINU`"'. +
Anthropological conventions specify the use of pseudonyms in certain types of anthropological reporting, specifically if there is any chance that individuals or a community might be harmed. +

Having official procedures in place for investigating RM can ensure the processes are held in a fair and transparent manner. +
The purpose of this policy is to promote and support research integrity and safeguard confidence in the value of publicly funded research by:
- making transparent the ARC’s role in ensuring research integrity and addressing breaches of the Australian Code for the Responsible Conduct of Research (2018) (the Code);- establishing a framework to support the integrity of the ARC’s grant application, peer review, grant selection and research evaluation processes, funding decisions and research;and
- raising awareness of the importance of research integrity and the possible consequences for research institutions and individuals if appropriate standards are not maintained. +
The quality of research is a precious asset for every society. Social progress, economic value creation, social living conditions and fairness between generations in shaping the future would all be unimaginable without reliable scientific and scholarly knowledge. Ensuring the quality of that knowledge is the duty of scientists and researchers themselves. Because scientific research can be highly specialised and complex, and because there are various links between science and research, politics, the business world and other actors in society, self-governance in science and research can only be effective if it is codified and institutionalised. As an organisation established by Austria‘s research institutions themselves, the OeAWI makes an important contribution to effective self-governance in the Austrian science and research system. +
This paper aims to explore common types of publication misconduct in the editorial office in a specific journal, and considers several implications +
This scenario warrants serious consideration on employed practices regarding ghost authorship. Several consequences might arise from this malpractice. Early-career scientists are deterred from gaining research visibility and acquiring writing skills. In the long run, it generates a vicious circle of bringing up new generation academics that might repeat the same mistakes if they were to become group leaders. Aside from long-term consequences on the health of academia, another problem arises – the lack of adequate bodies, in certain settings, that could help address and resolve the given problem. Institutions that haven't done so already, should widely act upon continuous education about good research practice on all levels, as well as implementing research integrity offices. +
