“…As a disci pline, we are meeting these goals in a variety of ways but are less effective when it comes to bringing our students' work to publication (Perlman & McCann, 2005). Quality journals that judge students' work based upon their developmental level like Psi Chi Journal of Psychological Research provide excellent opportunities for faculty and students to avoid the filedrawer effect.…”

“…Allow ing students to generate research questions and design in a class means that one will likely forego approval and thus presentation of the work beyond the course as is the case with some 90% of student projects (Grahe et al, 2012;Perlman & McCann, 2005). Alternatively, an inclass generation of research questions may result in a project that will take longer than a 16-week semester and require significant future commitment from both students and faculty.…”

Article HistoryThe present study aims to explore the effectiveness of teaching educational research course on the development of the scientific research skills as well as the academic and personal integrity among the female students of Al-Qasim University, department of family and childhood sciences. The sample of the study consists of (45) female students who study the educational research course at the department of family and childhood science, the first term of the academic year 2016/2017CE. To achieve the aims of the current study, three measures have been designed. 1) an integrity questioner consisting of (37) items.2) a questioner consisting of ( 51) items to measure the personal integrity.3) an achievement test consisting of ( 34) items in form of multiple choices that cover the main dimensions of the scientific research skills in the educational research :collecting data, steps of scientific research implementation , writing of scientific research . The three measures have been applied before and after teaching the course at the end of the first term. The outcomes of the study have shown that there are statistically significant differences between the two mean scores of students on the test of the scientific research before and after teaching the course in favor of the post-test. The mean scores of the pre-application has reached (10.87), whereas the mean scores of the post-application stand at (25.82). The outcomes also have revealed that there are statistically significant differences at the (0.01) level between the two averages of students grades on the post and pre-test of the academic integrity values in favor of the post-test due to the educational research course , the amount of effect is (0.802 ). Additionally, there are significant differences at the (0.01) level between the two mean scores of students in the post and pre-test of the personal integrity values in the favor of the post-test, the amount of effect is (0.782 ). Pearson Correlation Coefficient has been used to reveal the relation significance between student's grades on the post-test of the academic integrity values and the personal integrity values. The value of correlation coefficient equals (0.588 ), which is a value of statistical significance at (0.01) level. This confirms that the development of the academic integrity values is associated with the development of the personal integrity values, and vice versa. ISSN(e): 2224-4441 ISSN(p): 2226-5139 DOI: 10.18488/journal.1.2017 Contribution/ Originality: This study is one of very few studies which have investigated the effectiveness of teaching educational research course on the development of the scientific research skills as well as the academic and personal integrity among the female students of Al-Qasim University , department of family and childhood sciences for the aim of spreading the culture the academic integrity values among the university of students in Kingdome of Saudi Arabia.
