The history of scientific misconduct already started long time ago, where Ptolemy used data from Hipparchos without acknowledging him; Galileo Galilei, the founder of the scientific method but appears to have relied more on thought experiments rather than performing empirical experiments (Werner-Felmayer, 2010). In the modern world, the integrity of scientist and scientific research is jeopardized when the discovery of scientific misconduct made headline news. Headline such as “Korean scientist said
When one plagiarizes, it is nearly inevitable to miss. You have some that are easier to spot when stealing written work than others, but it is not hard to catch with today’s technology. As a freshman at the University of Arizona majoring in Journalism, each student was asked to read, thoroughly read, the School of Journalism’s Academic Integrity Handbook. In doing so, I learned the an easier way of looking at plagiarism in itself. Furthermore, I learned exactly what the handbook meant by plagiarism

process. Poehlman was in extremely good standing within his research fields, ultimately publishing over two hundred journal articles. Unfortunately, soon enough, with developing suspicions from one of his research team member, Poehlman was accused of scientific fraud by a former lab technician, Walter DeNino, at the University of Vermont. As maintained by The New York Times, Poehlman has been presenting fraudulent data in lectures and in published papers, and has been using this data to obtain millions

HP-48SX Scientific Expandable Calculator History The HP-48SX Scientific Expandable calculator was manufactured by Hewlett Packard and the copyright is dated 1989. At the time of release, the HP-48 series was the most advanced line of scientific calculators available to those in the technical fields. I purchased the calculator in 1991 through a high school mathematics program. It has been used extensively since then for virtually every class I have taken. So far, the calculator has never malfunctioned
HRM - Conflicts of Scientific and Humanistic Values 1.0 Introduction One of the popular theory of the “Critical Theorist “ ( with referrence to the Marxist view ). science reduce humankind to passive objects beholden to the laws of "nature." Sociology, as a form of science, is therefore also criticized for making scientific studies a means to an end unto themselves, as well as for not recognizing the importance of the individual. Modern society at large is criticized for being obsessed with rationality
Is Social Science Scientific? Sociology is undoubtedly a logical science; it has the characteristics that other sciences have, its own theories that can be proved, as well as having systematic theories and laws. John Maynard Keynes refuted the many statements made by Auguste Comte and Friedrich Engels, simply he described social sciences as “illogical” and “dull.” Thus, without providing any sufficient evidence, he had not proven that, in fact, sociology is not scientific. Auguste Comte regularly
Victorian Gothic Literature: Scientific vs. Medieval Thinking Creatures of the night have always held a fascination and horror for people in all cultures. The English fascination with sensational and gothic literature came to a peak, after slacking slightly following the Romantic period, in the late Victorian period with such works as Dracula, The Strange Adventures of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and The Picture of Dorian Gray. The literate populace avidly devoured this type of literature. While
Scientific misconduct is an act which intentionally compromises the honesty of scientific research, such as plagiarism or the falsification or untruth of data. Scientific misconduct may also be defined as the violation of the typical codes of scholarly ways and ethical behavior in professional scientific study. Scientific misconduct is currently widely documented as a genuine and significant problem for contemporary science, but too often the participants in the research system and those external
Lecture #4 Questions -Who determines the ethical guidelines and standards for scientists and how are they enforced? The scientific community, in a sense, is a self-regulating group for scientists. All scientists are a part of the scientific community and hold each other to a strict set of ethical guidelines and standards. They expect each other to rigorously scrutinize scientific ideas for flawed logic, act honestly and with integrity, give credit to others when it is due, and adhere to ethical guidelines
There are cases in the history of scientific inquiry that are marred by instances of fraud. Robert Bell's The Impure Science offers several case studies in questionable scientific activity; Bernard Rollin touches on a few more cases in the final chapter of Science and Ethics, and the chapter "Deceit in History" offers an account of possible fraud by some of science's largest historical figures. What is strange about these accounts is that the integrity of the scientific discipline remains unaffected
The practice of science should always be undertaken with precautions to guard against against one's own prejudices. In scientific inquiry, the search for an absolute, objective truth is not obtainable since the interpretation of empirical data is based on factors more that the data itself: science relies on shaping principles which are as varied as there are scientists. This means that two scientists looking at the same data are likely to come up with different theories based on the philosophical
Biases in Research Researchers often feel pressure to produce results in scientific studies. Pressure is delivered by any entity, but this perception of pushing to produce, is solely controlled within the mind of the researcher. In order to have valid and reliable research, scientists are taught to be diligent, thorough, and self-aware enough to control for various biases. However, more often than not, there is no escaping one’s own mind or the resulting beliefs that reside within. Doctors, scholars
Theories have been used in many subjects such as science, philosophy, criminology etc… They are what we use to help us gain an understanding of the world we live in. In criminology, it is used to help us define criminality; what causes crime, and why an individual choose to commit crime. These models of comprehension come from three major explanations: sociological, biological and psychological. However, the two more well-known ones are biological and psychological. Biological focuses on the relation

Such risks include (Appelbaum et al. 2004): indirect danger that results of specific individual research project being misused by third parties for harmful purposes and direct risks associated with negligence or deliberate misconduct by scientists.
