The Types, Incentives and Effects of Research Misconduct in China' Universities
Abstract:The research misconduct in China's universities is mainly shown as power rent-seeking, fraud- ulent practice, repeated bubble making and fame-and-fortune pursuit. The vague understanding of scientific value, apatheic consciousness of research rules and feelings of honor and shame in research activities are the subjective reasons that cause research misconduct. The objective reasons of research misconduct include the uniting of administration and academy, centralized operation in professional title evaluation and the inabilities from the research correction mechanism. The research misconduct will trample the dignity of scientific research, ruin the reputation of university and stop China from becoming a powerful nation of science and technology.
