ABSTRACT

Ethics and Scientific Misconduct

Adrian K Dixon
Department of Radiology, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom


Sadly around 10% of all submissions contain serious flaws, which have been not fully alluded to by the authors. A smaller percentage of submissions are deliberately fraudulent.

The Committee on Publication Ethics - COPE (www.publicationethics.org.uk) has pointed out many of the things that authors should beware of and that editors, referees and institutions should be on the look out for. The various workers that constitute COPE have made substantial improvements to the integrity of research data and should be congratulated on their considerable contribution to the research literature.

In essence, their guidelines cannot be improved upon and come down to the following issues. These will be discussed in turn:

  • Study design and ethical approval
  • Data analysis
  • Authorship
  • Conflicts of Interest
  • Peer review
  • Redundant publication
  • Plagiarism
  • Duties of editors
  • Media relations
  • Advertising
  • Dealing with misconduct.
