    Beyond Bad Apples: Towards a Behavioral and Evidence-Based Approach to Promote Research Ethics and Research Integrity in Europe (BEYOND)

    Objectives

    The main goal of the BEYOND project is to robustly explore and advance individual and institutional responsibilities in RM and in the promotion of RE/RI. The project aims to achieve this goal by developing co-created, needs-and-case-based, streamlined, and best practices-based measures meant to engage, guide, and equip research-related stakeholders through guidance and educational instruments. Specific objectives are:

  • Identification of behavioral knowledge and needs through a state-of-the-art review of per-sonal and institutional responsibilities on research ethics and integrity
  • Facilitation of bottom-up and solution-oriented public consultations on research ethics and integrity needs, knowledge, and perspectives on the efficacy of research ethics and integri-ty interventions
  • Designing and testing of psychologically informed interventions as methodologies to pro-mote research ethics and integrity and address research misconduct from the perspective of personal and institutional responsibilities
  • Development of methodologies to measure the short-, medium-, and long-term impact of research ethics and integrity trainings on attitudes and behaviors of students and researchers
  • Provision of guidance through a best-practice manual, guidelines that supplement standard operating procedures, and a 2030 roadmap towards improving the research ethics and integrity culture
  • Fostering of broad uptake of project outputs through strategic synergy building and the provision of training materials that supplement existing research ethics and integrity training materials
  • Outputs:

  • Improved understanding of psychological and behavioral drivers of research misconduct
  • Training materials
  • Training evaluation methodologies
  • Behavioral interventions to promote research integrity
  • Guideline on research ethics and integrity governance that will supplement existing standard operating procedures
  • Best practice manual based on case studies of successful implemented measures to prevent research misconduct and promote research ethics and integrity
  • A policy roadmap on research ethics and integrity promotion
  • Duration:

    January 2023 - December 2025
