Measurable Outcomes for Fostering Responsible Conduct of Research
It has become increasingly clear that – on the aggregated level – the impact of questionable research practices (QRP) is much larger than that of the classical ‘deadly sins’ of fabrication, falsification and plagiarism. Responsible conduct of research (RCR) concerns the behaviour of scientists. They are guided by the ‘moral compass’ in their head. A number of stakeholders have a role to play in keeping the moral compass stable and pointing in the right direction. The most important stakeholders are the scientists themselves. They bear the responsibility for maintaining research integrity in their own work and that of their colleagues, first and foremost the PhD students and others they supervise or mentor.
But the moral compass of scientists is of course strongly influenced by what happens in the environment. The big picture seems to be that scientists experience dilemmas and conflicts of interest in daily practice that arise from the fact that what is good for the validity and reliability of science is not always good for their personal career. Many rewards are linked to having positive and spectacular results as these are published more easily in high impact journals and will be cited more often. The various QRP have in common that they can effectively help to get these positive and spectacular results.
Both in the local research climate and in the system of science at large important determinants of RCR and lack thereof can be identified. Sadly, some of these can act as a perverse incentive and lead to QRPs or worse. Empowering the scientist and optimizing the incentives for RCR is the task of the other stakeholders. They should together make it more easy for scientist to keep their moral compass tuned correctly and to live up to the standards of research integrity. We need to recognize that research institutions, funding agencies and scientific journals can and should take measures to foster RCR and to detect and handle instances of major or minor research misbehaviors.
Research institutions have a duty to have clear codes and procedures regarding research integrity, and to ensure good facilities, adequate mentoring, and training in RCR at all levels. Specific arrangements must be made to enable transparency and to monitor research quality, like good data-management and –storage facilities, adequate methodological and statistical support, and a system of internal audits. Institutions should tackle the perverse incentives in their reward system and promote a research climate in which dilemmas can be openly discussed and learning from mistakes is encouraged. Institutions may decide to explore the salient aspects of their research climate and identify promising ways to promote responsible conduct of research by consulting their community of researchers.
At the end of the 5th World Conference on Research Integrity, May 2017, consensus was reached on the Amsterdam Agenda that says: It is now time to place greater emphasis on the assessment of efforts to improve integrity in research and the use of empirical information in developing research integrity policies. Following that lead measurable outcomes will be proposed for the actions research institutions take to foster RCR among their scientific staff and examples of the use of these outcomes will be given.

Developing a Positive Culture of Online Commentary and Critique
Publishing is changing dramatically, one aspect of which is an increasing move to commentary and critique of academic work, both as preprints and of peer reviewed research. There is an increasing expectation that such commentary will be online and open. There are now a number of journals and aggregated sites that publish such commentary as well as many social media sites where comments can be posted.
But as for many new technologies and behaviors, technical capability has thus far exceeded the development of social norms. We now have a situation where academics, who have had little expectation of the need for or the training in responding to comments, increasingly needing to do so. Furthermore, debate often occurs in an accelerated time frame, and in a manner that is very different from the previous norms of academic debate. There are many examples where online critique has led to important corrections, but there are also many examples of at best pointless, and at the worst, malicious commentary.
There is an urgent need therefore to discuss and agree how commentary and critique of academic work needs to evolve in order to ensure that it supports the long-term aim of a reliable, reproducible academic literature, in a way that is supportive and respectful.
