Vitae Research Integrity Workshop, 8 October 2019, Edinburgh.

Would you like to contribute to a research study of research integrity? The Concordat to Support Research Integrity (2012) defines research integrity as ‘maintaining the highest standards of rigour and integrity in all aspects of research’

Including:

• Honesty in all aspects of research
• Rigour in methods, interpretations and communication
• Transparency and open communication
• Care and respect for participants, subjects and the stewardship of research and scholarship

Vitae in partnership with UKRIO have been commissioned by Research England, on behalf of UKRI to undertake a research integrity landscape study. This project will consider the effects of incentives (drivers and motivators) in the research system on researcher behaviour in the context of research integrity, how these incentives are perceived by different stakeholders and the impact of these incentives on researcher behaviour and organisational practices more broadly. 

The study involves a number of research workshops between July and October and a large-scale researcher survey in the autumn.We are looking for researchers at all career stages (from PhD candidate upwards) and in all disciplines, who are based in the UK, to participate in one of the workshops. We are now seeking expressions of interest for autumn events. These will take place in several locations across the UK. The workshop is a half-day programme and participants are not asked to do any preparation or follow-up.

To register interest for the Edinburgh Workshop, held at the Scottish Funding Council, follow this link.

Please note that we will seek to balance attendance at the workshops taking into account discipline, career stage and institution. Workshop places are limited and we will confirm places by email and hold a waiting list.

OpenAIR@RGU – monthly update (no.33 – September 2019)

Welcome to the thirty-third monthly update on OpenAIR@RGU – RGU’s open access institutional repository. Please direct any queries to the team at publications@rgu.ac.uk.

Service Update

We migrated our legacy data into Worktribe over the summer, but we are still working to fix lots of inaccuracies and errors that have appeared in our records during the migration. If you spot any problems when using Worktribe or OpenAIR, please let us know and we’ll fix them as quickly as possible.

Later this year, we will begin running training sessions for researchers on how to use the Outputs module in Worktribe. This training will cover searching for existing outputs as well as adding new ones. Please note: you will need to have attended a “Getting Started with Worktribe” basic training session first, in order to be given access to the system. Contact the RAMP team (ramp@rgu.ac.uk) to arrange your basic training.

Content

The repository currently contains 3,571 links between Schools and outputs (some records are linked to multiple Schools and therefore included in this figure more than once). Some examples of recent additions to the repository include the following outputs:

Unfortunately, we are unable to provide reliable download statistics at the moment. This is due to technical issues that arose during the migration to Worktribe. We hope to be able to provide this information again soon.

Plan S

Plan S is an initiative for Open Access publishing that was launched in September 2018. The plan is supported by cOAlition S, an international consortium of research funders. Plan S requires that, from 2021, scientific publications that result from research funded by public grants must be published in compliant Open Access journals or platforms. Read more from cOALition S.

While the Open Access and Open Science debate is largely a settled one, reactions from the research community and publishers to Plan S have been mixed. This is a short bibliography of articles from academic journals from 2019, most of which are accessible, offering contemporary commentary, explanations and interpretations of Plan S.

Research Integrity Workshop

Vitae in partnership with UKRIO have been commissioned by Research England, on behalf of UKRI to undertake a study about research integrity.

This project (a landscape study) will consider

• the effects of incentives in the research system on researcher behaviour in the context of research integrity,
• how these incentives are perceived by different stakeholders, and
• the impact of these incentives on researcher behaviour and organisational practices more broadly.

Stage 1 of the project includes two workshops: King’s College London on 18^th July (pm); and University of Manchester on August 9^th (pm) and aimed at researchers across all career stages, disciplines and types of institution. The workshops are an important opportunity to inform the design of a large-scale researcher survey in the autumn and the ongoing literature review.

More project and event information, as well as a registration form can be found at: https://www.vitae.ac.uk/events/research-integrity-workshop

Update on the Concordat to Support the Career Development of Researchers

Following the publication of the consultation report on the recommendations of the Independent Review of the Concordat to Support the Career Development of Researchers, Vitae has produced a handy set of summary slides

The slides provide a bitesize summary of the consultation outcomes, including next steps, for researchers and those supporting them at RGU, to keep up to date with progress around the revision of the Concordat. Click on the images to enlarge or view the slideshow.
