Disguised As Investigators
Journal Title: Prohominum - Year 2021, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
The objective of this document is to characterize those subjects who disguise themselves as researchers in contexts related to scientific production, skewing attention towards those who are dedicated to research in academic contexts. In this sense, it takes into account behaviors associated with both the fabrication and falsification of data, as well as the plagiarism of works. To achieve all this, a descriptive research supported by a content analysis was followed. Among the findings, it stands out that: (a) many researchers consider that intentionality is present in most of the authors who commit fraud; (b) it is not always easy to discover some fraudulent processes, especially when the perpetrators have certain skills that allow them to deceive a large part of the readers; (c) it has been difficult to eradicate the presence of fraudulent authors and those who fabricate or falsify data to falsify results; and (d) the scientific work requires responsible and committed researchers, therefore, it must face those who disguise themselves as researchers who only dedicate themselves, among other things, to setting up teams of complacent researchers who endorse whatever they receive, without being pending. That what is written is affiliated with the ethical and moral standards that must accompany good researchers
