Mapping of Empirical Studies on Research Integrity in University Institutions

“…In the study of ( , after the mandatory course developed, they show a modest improvement in knowledge and attitude about IR. According to the article by (Sarauw, 2021), creating a culture of research integrity, integrity training is not enough, improvements in professional incentives are needed.…”

“…This explains that the articles that are part of the analysis of the present study had and have a higher probability of being cited and seen by other researchers along the same thematic line. In that line, the most cited and viewed articles were (Haven et al, 2019;Sarauw, 2021) published in Journal of Academic Ethics and Plos One indexed Scopus/Wos and placed in Q1. This tells us that the articles of the mentioned authors had higher potential visibility and impact in the same field and in the scientific community.…”

“…I will investigate the particularity of how the Danish Code of Conduct for Research Integrity was realised in practice, while also pointing to how this national policy is embedded in developments internationally. There are specificities to this particular Danish case, yet there are also similarities and convergence with how research integrity has grown and become an international field -not only politically, but also as a new field of research (Douglas-Jones & Wright, 2021;Mejlgaard et al, 2020;Sarauw, 2021). A key parameter in the Danish Code of Conduct for Research Integrity is the provision of teaching, training and supervision: "Institutions are responsible for ensuring that all staff (including guest researchers) and students involved in research have sufficient knowledge of and receive training in the principles of research integrity and responsible conduct of research" (Ministry of Higher Education and Science, 2014, p. 18).…”
