EthicalEthical IssuesIssues
Two kinds of unforgivable ethical errors in scientificcommunication
1. Distorting your own data
2. Plagiarizing the work of others

Not only ethical, but also legal issue
Might result from sloppy documentation!

Examples:Falsing of dataTrimming of dataBiased interpretation of dataMisleading and ambigious statements and presentation
Intentional, but be also especially aware of unintentional errors: „Don´t make up your mind about your results before your data are
collected and analyzed“Davis 1996

Ethical researcher do not steal by plagiarizing or claiming theresult of others
They do not lie by misreporting sources or inventions
They do not destroy sources or data for those who follow

Responsible researcher do not submit data whose accuracy theyhave reason to questionThey do not conceal objections that they cannot rebutThey do not write their reports in a way that deliberaty makes itdifficult for readers to understand them, nor do they oversimplifythat which is legitimately complex.
