Publication + (Publication, in a broad sense, can be defi … Publication, in a broad sense, can be defined as the act of making information or stories available to people in a printed or electronic form. Scientific ideas have been communicated in printed form throughout history. Scientific publication in the traditional sense can be traced back to 1665, when the first academic journal was published'"`UNIQ--ref-00000000-QINU`"'. Nowadays, the printed form has been extended with electronic forms of communication, and videos are becoming increasingly popular as well'"`UNIQ--ref-00000001-QINU`"'. Previously, many scientific articles were only available with paid subscriptions. Recently, the possibilities of digital publication led to the rise of [https://embassy.science/wiki/Theme:06925397-5843-495d-a22d-3e983bdcb99e Open Acces] publication. This increased the availability of scientific outcomes to those who did not have these subscriptions and also made the results publicly available'"`UNIQ--ref-00000002-QINU`"'. Nowadays, one of the hallmarks of 'good publication' is considered to be [https://embassy.science/wiki/Theme:29d64b53-eba2-489b-937d-440d6cd118d8 peer reviewed publication]. Academic publishing is an entire process on its own and what composes 'good publication' is not straightforward. Traditionally, the popularity of a journal and its impact factor also play a role in the consideration of scientific work. However, it has been shown that articles which have been rejected by popular journals with a high impact factor generally have more citations when eventually published elsewhere'"`UNIQ--ref-00000003-QINU`"'.

Recommendation 1/2023, of 16th May, concerning multiple affiliations in scientific journals + (Recommendation 1/2023 (16 May 2023) addres … Recommendation 1/2023 (16 May 2023) addresses concerns about the '''practice of declaring multiple institutional affiliations in scientific publications''', especially when such affiliations may not reflect where the research was actually conducted, supported, or formally authorised. It was issued by the Committee for the Integrity of Research in Catalonia (CIR-CAT) following referrals about some high-profile researchers who appeared to list affiliations with foreign institutions without clear evidence that those institutions provided substantial research support, possibly for reputational or ranking advantages. The committee emphasises that affiliation and authorship are integral to scientific publications and should truthfully represent formal ties and contributions. Misleading or fraudulent affiliations can undermine good scientific practice, distort institutional credit, and damage trust in research. The recommendation calls on institutions to investigate reported cases internally, ensure compliance with contractual and legal obligations, engage with journals to correct unjustified affiliations, and strengthen internal policies and communication on ethical affiliation practices.nication on ethical affiliation practices.)

It defines affiliation as a formal relationship between a researcher and an institution at the time the research was conducted, typically based on employment or an official contractual link. The document stresses that affiliations must be declared honestly and should only include institutions that genuinely contributed resources, infrastructure, funding, or intellectual support to the research. While multiple affiliations may be listed, this should be limited (generally no more than two) and justified, with a clear primary affiliation indicating where most of the work was carried out. The recommendation also highlights the responsibility of institutions to provide clear guidance and oversight on affiliation practices. Finally, it cautions against misuse of affiliations for institutional rankings and encourages alignment with responsible research assessment principles such as DORA and CoARA.essment principles such as DORA and CoARA.)
Recommendation on Science and Scientific Researchers (2018) + (Recommendation on Science and Scientific R … Recommendation on Science and Scientific Researchers (2018) is a international framework authored by nan, in english, targeting nan. Originating from International, it aims to formalise principles of research integrity and open practice. It emphasises honesty, accountability, professional courtesy, and stewardship of resources, linking these values to reproducibility, credibility, and societal trust in research. The text covers responsibilities of researchers, institutions, funders, and journals, spelling out expectations for good practice in planning, conducting, publishing, and reviewing research. Common provisions include clear authorship criteria, proper citation and acknowledgement, management of conflicts of interest, transparency of methods and data, responsible supervision, and fair peer review. It also establishes procedures for handling breaches of integrity, defining misconduct, and setting up investigation mechanisms that ensure due process, proportional sanctions, and learning opportunities. By aligning with international standards, it connects local policy to global norms, reinforcing mobility of researchers and comparability of practices across borders. The document integrates the principle of education—training for students and staff on responsible conduct—ensuring that integrity is taught as a core skill rather than assumed knowledge. It also incorporates guidance on emerging issues such as data management, digital tools, open science, and new forms of dissemination, embedding integrity in contemporary workflows. Practical tools often include checklists, codes of behaviour, reporting templates, and FAQs, translating high-level principles into day-to-day actions. The intended audience spans researchers, supervisors, institutions, and policymakers, all of whom need clarity on their roles in safeguarding the credibility of research. Equity and diversity appear as cross-cutting themes, recognising that integrity involves creating inclusive environments free from discrimination, harassment, or exploitation.Overall, the resource situates research integrity as both a personal commitment and an institutional responsibility, embedding it into the full research cycle from design to dissemination. Annexes may provide case studies, historical context, and references to international declarations such as Singapore or Montreal statements. Definitions and glossaries support consistent interpretation, and contact points or ombudsperson systems are described to lower barriers to reporting.

Disclosing Conflicts of Interest in Scientific Advice + (Regarding a case in which a researcher at … Regarding a case in which a researcher at VU Amsterdam was alleged to have failed to disclose fully his conflicts of interest in publications, scientific advice and a research proposal, there was a disagreement between the institutional research integrity committee and The Netherlands Board on Research Integrity ('LOWI') concerning the application of the assessment framework that relates to conflicts of interests. According to the institutional research integrity committee, although failure to disclose relevant secondary interests is a case of negligence, it does not imply that the primary obligation to ensure reliable academic practice has been violated. This meant that the institutional research integrity committee determined that the behaviour of the researcher could not be reviewed under the Netherlands Code of Conduct for Academic Practice. The LOWI disagreed with this interpretation. This is a factual anonymized case.tation. This is a factual anonymized case.)
