Abstract:
The number of papers retracted by scientific journals in the year of 2011 was thirteen times higher than the average number at the beginning of the century. The growth rate is alarmingly fast. If a paper is retracted, both the academic life of the authors and the reputation of the institute will be tarnished. The so-called "Responsible Conduct of Research" (RCR) is recognized as an important topic dealing with these behavior and phenomena. In this talk, I will introduce various aspects of RCR including the policy, main areas covered, and specific examples. The emphasis will be on the easily made mistakes by researchers in Taiwan and Asian countries.

摘要:
二零一一年時有人統計,當年被撤回的學術論文件數,較本世紀早期的年度平均數字,增加了有十三倍,其滋長速度之快,令人驚訝。如果學術論文被撤回,其後果可能包括當事人學術生命的終結與其研究機構聲譽的損失,影響之鉅,不容小覷。諸如此種現象均為「負責任的研究行為」(Responsible Conduct of Research) 此一領域所涵蓋。本演講的內容為對「負責任的研究行為」的簡介,包括了政策、主要課題內容、實際案例等三部分,側重在台灣地區與亞洲地區研究人員最可能疏忽犯錯之處,希望能對學界有所裨益。
