Call

The empirical and behavioural approach to research ethics and integrity

Detailed Call Description

Based on the results of the literature review the action should develop a casuistry-based methodology to address research misconduct. This methodology should also take into account personal and institutional responsibilities for the promotion of research integrity and relevant research and efforts on the rehabilitation and reintegration of researchers. Particular attention should be paid to issues related to the mental health and wellbeing of researchers, especially for those employed in uncertain work conditions (short-term contracts, early career researchers, students, etc.), including with respect to bullying and sexual harassment as well as other forms of gender-based violence.

The action should develop:

  • An identification of current needs in improving institutional research culture, taking into account the potential unequal impacts on people of different genders;
  • Specific course material to enhance and supplement current efforts on research ethics and integrity that stem from (but not limited to) EU-funded projects;
  • Guidelines to facilitate adoption of the gained knowledge in host institutions – as a supplement to existing Standard Operating procedures. These guidelines should also cover responsible mentoring, supervision and role modelling;
  • Methodologies for measuring the short-, medium- and long-term impact of ethics and integrity trainings in the attitudes and behaviours of students and researchers and their ethical conduct in research and innovation; and
  • A best practice manual, based on case studies of implemented measures that analyse what works and what does not work in various contexts, to enable practice-oriented learning.

    • Financing percentage by EU or other bodies / Level of Subsidy or Loan

    100%
