2. Originality and Plagiarism: Authors must ensure that they have written entirely original work. The manuscript
should not be submitted concurrently to more than one publication unless the editors have agreed to co-
publication. Relevant previous work and publications, both by other researchers and the authors’ own, should be
properly acknowledged and referenced. The primary literature should be cited where possible. Original wording
taken directly from publications by other researchers should appear in quotation marks with the appropriate
citations.
3. Multiple, Redundant, or Concurrent Publications: Author should not in general submit the same manuscript to
more than one journal concurrently. It is also expected that the author will not publish redundant manuscripts or
manuscripts describing same research in more than one journal. Submitting the same manuscript to more than
one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Multiple publications
arising from a single research project should be clearly identified as such and the primary publication should be
referenced
4. Acknowledgement of Sources: Authors should acknowledge all sources of data used in the research and cite
publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work. Proper acknowledgment
of the work of others must always be given.
Duties of Authors
5. Authorship of the Paper: The authorship of research publications should accurately reflect individuals’
contributions to the work and its reporting. Authorship should be limited to those who have made a significant
contribution to conception, design, execution or interpretation of the reported study. Others who have made
significant contribution must be listed as co-authors. In cases where major contributors are listed as authors
while those who made less substantial, or purely technical, contributions to the research or to the publication are
listed in an acknowledgement section. Authors also ensure that all the authors have seen and agreed to the
submitted version of the manuscript and their inclusion of names as co-authors.
6. Disclosure and Conflicts of Interest: All authors should clearly disclose in their manuscript any financial or
other substantive conflict of interest that might be construed to influence the results or interpretation of their
manuscript. All sources of financial support for the project should be disclosed.
7. Fundamental Errors in Published Works: If the author discovers a significant error or inaccuracy in the
submitted manuscript, then the author should promptly notify the journal editor or publisher and cooperate
with the editor to retract or correct the paper.
8. Hazards and Human or Animal Subjects: The author should clearly identify in the manuscript if the work
involves chemicals, procedures or equipment that have any unusual hazards inherent in their use.

Ethics - philosophical
science that rationally
examines moral beliefs and
behavior. The moral
principals and behavioral
codes that govern a
person’s or a groups
behavior. From the Greek

habit
What is Scientific Integrity?
Authors
• Thorough, accurate, precise, objective account of the research,
methodology, assumptions, uncertainty, and supporting data
• Devoid of sensationalism, personal criticism, bias, opinion
• Ensure appropriateness of co-authors, ensure all co-authors agree
to content and revisions
• Never plagiarize or misrepresent data or research
• Identify all sources of information and citations

5-minute Challenge – Scientific Integrity

• Investigations revealed that Summerlin had turned some white rats into
black rats by drawing black patches on their skin using a black coloured
marker pen (‘patchwork mouse’).
Example 2
• Dr. Ranjit Chandra’s study in Canada published in September 2001
edition of ‘Nutrition’ claimed that a multivitamin formula that he
had patented could reverse memory loss problems in geriatric
population (http://www.cbc.ca/national/news/chandra)accessed on
• 4/8/08).
• Dr. Chandra took the art fabrication to a new level by getting another
fabricated article authored by one Amrit Jain published in his own
journal wherein the findings were supportive of Dr. Chandra’s earlier
findings.
• This time, not only the data but even the author ‘Amrit Jain’ was
fabricated as such a person was not traceable at all!
Example 4
• Out of the 908 ‘patients’ in Sudbø’s study 250 were noted to have the
same date of birth! Subsequent inquiry revealedthat as many as 15 of
his articles were fraudulent (Couzin and Schirber 2006; http://news.

Plagiarism
Grand larceny is typically defined as larceny of a more Petty theft refers to a criminal act in which property belonging
significant amount of property. to another is taken without that person's consent. ... Larceny

• The term ‘ discoverer’ s complex’ has been used by Sorokin to
describe the attitude of one generation of scientists to assume that
they are the first to become aware of a particular phenomenon and
that the previous generations were ignorant about it.
• Plagiarism of ideas
• Paraphrasing plagiarism
• Plagiarism of authorship
Plagiarism of secondary sources
• The ideas of another author are borrowed but the wordings and
format of presentation are changed.
Word for word plagiarism
• A person claims himself or herself to be the author of a complete work belonging to others.
• It often occurs when mentors plagiarise the work done by their students or junior researchers and
completely deny authorship to the vulnerable students even though the entire research may have
been conceived and conducted by the students with hardly any participation by the mentor. The
junior person.
• often never gets any justice as exemplified by the case of Michael Pyshnov’s research concerning
cell division in the University of Toronto was ‘stolen’ by his mentor and her coterie of co-authors.
All Pyshnov got after his fight for justice was loss of career as a brilliant researcher
(http://ca.geocities.com/uoftfraud/ruthless.htm) accessed on 15/7/08).

Omission of citation of the relevant work of other
researchers
• The cited article simply describes the research work of the original
author.
• The author/s publish data without citing the earlier publication in the
same field elsewhere.
• Bit by bit publication of the data and results of what is essentially a single
experiment.
• Disputed authorship :
• Disputed authorship occurs when other researchers question a particular
person’ s right to be the author or co-author of an article.
• Disagreement over authorship negatively affects the good will and reputation
of the individual authors.
• Guest authorship:
• One who has not done any significant work towards the paper but has his
name as one of the authors.
• Types of guest authorship:
• Gift authorship, pressured authorship and ghost authorship
Gift author
• The gift author may be a senior researcher who ha a say in promotion and salary
of the authors who are gifting th authorship.
• Example:
• Gift authorship of Professor Geoffrey Chamberlain in fraudulent case report by Malcolm
Pearce in the British Journal of Obstetrics an gynaecology titled ‘Term Delivery after
Intrauterine Relocation o Ectopic Pregnancy proved very costly for Professor Chamberlain
(http://www.bmj.com/collections/author1 htm)accessed on 3/8/08).
Ghost writing
• Because the real author is known to have close links with the
company his or her name is substituted by the name of other author
who is not identified with the company.
Pressured authorship
• Kwok has termed the senior researcher who abuses his juniors to gain
undue authorship credit a ‘white bull’ indulging in ‘publication
parasitism’ (Kwok 2005).
Irresponsible co-authorship
• Example:
• Dr. Gerald Schlatten from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine was a co-
author. When the fraud was exposed Dr. Schlatten claimed that he had played only
an ‘advisory’ role in the study and had no active part in it. Though the University of
Pittsburgh cleared him of scientific misconduct it held him guilty of ‘misbehaviour’ in
failing to ensure the veracity of the data in the paper (Parry 2006).
