  • theft or plagiarism of data, ideas or methods, from another researcher
  • misrepresentation of the research process for example by incorrect use of methodology, dishonest inclusion or exclusion of data, deceptive analysis of data to misrepresent their interpretation, or dishonesty toward granting authorities
