Part of our role is to build and understand the evidence base to support research integrity. We have commissioned a review of the available published information on enablers and inhibitors of research integrity. The focus is on evidence relating to the UK research sector and the synthesis will help us collectively understand where our efforts might be best focused, and where there are evidence gaps about what really helps or hinders research integrity.
Approach
The UK Reproducibility Network, the UK Research Integrity Office, and the Science Policy Research Unit are carrying out the evidence synthesis by reviewing both academic and grey literature. A small number of interviews will be conducted to test the emerging findings and we will publish the report in early 2024.
