Our system of research self-regulation, designed to provide internal checks and balances for those who participate in involving human subjects, is under considerable stress. Much this crisis has been caused by what we call mission creep, which the workload IRBs expanded beyond their ability handle effectively. Mission creep rewarding wrong behaviors, such as focusing more on procedures documentation than difficult ethical questions; unclear definitions, lead responsibilities; efforts comply...
This Viewpoint highlights the inadequacy and lack of transparency most research institutions' responses to allegations misconduct, describes development a proposed checklist establish definitions standards for complete integrity investigations.
This White Paper reports on two years' work by a group convened the Center for Advanced Study at University of Illinois, following an invitational, national, interdisciplinary conference Human Subject Policy Conference: An Examination Interaction Between Protection Regulations and Research Outside Biomedical Sphere. We describe pernicious effects mission creep Institutional Review Boards, which is diverting attention some IRBs from critical ethical oversight in favor often-meaningless...
This research describes the development and validation of CARES Climate Survey, a 22-item measure designed to assess interpersonal dimensions work-unit climates. Dimensions climates are identified through member perceptions include civility, accountability, conflict resolution, institutional harassment responsiveness. Two samples (N = 1,384; N 868) academic researchers, including one from North American membership Geophysical Union (AGU), large research-intensive university, responded...
The single most important component in an institutional culture of research integrity is leadership committed to ethical conduct. If the institution's leaders are and act on that commitment, campus will follow lead; conversely, if perception develops pay only lip service conduct, adopt same attitude. An institution must attention both prevention education, many developing codes Further, institutions establish a misconduct review process can render objective, fact-based decisions untainted by...
Abstract Without any systematic data or evidence of a problem, even thoughtful analysis costs and benefits, the application human participant review system within universities is overreaching at same time that some risky experimentation on humans outside unregulated. This article questions purpose, feasibility, effectiveness current IRB approaches to most "2 people talking" situations proposes scaling back regulatory increase respect accorded it by researchers its ability protect...
We describe the summative assessment of role-play scenarios that we previously developed to teach central topics in responsible conduct research (RCR) graduate students science and engineering. Interviews with participants, participants a case discussion training session, untrained suggested role-playing might promote deeper appreciation RCR by shifting focus away from wanting simply "know rules." also present results think-aloud analysis study development behaviorally-anchored rating scale...

Formalized Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) programs have become a compliance requirement. Yet evidence consistently demonstrates that compliance-based ethics training focused on teaching regulations and “rules” fails to create ethical cultures. practice in behavioral demonstrated there is value moving away from rule-based, normative, education toward approaches rooted descriptive explainations about how why individuals make unethical decisions, environmental cultural influences. We...
This manuscript highlights the development of a leadership preparation program known as Nanyang Technological University Leadership Academy (NTULA), exploring challenges unique to university undergoing rapid growth in highly multicultural context, and hybrid model it developed response globalization. It asks research question how adapted period accelerated transition by adopting approach academic leadership. The paper uses qualitative methodology review NTULA's first cohort, including...
Law students rarely have the opportunity to interact with other professionals - doctors, business people, social workers, actors or engineers, for example during law school. While legal problems are ubiquitous in lives of many professionals, there is little most professional graduate education programs prepare work effectively a lawyer engage across disciplinary lines when facing issues. Consequently, complete their educations and move into practice, they can encounter type culture shock...
