Research Ethics and Research Integrity

The basic principles of research integrity are reliability, honesty, respect, and accountability. Research integrity (RI) consists of practices that ensure that RI is maintained throughout the life span of any research.

The Finnish National Board on Research Integrity (TENK) handles ethical issues related to research integrity and to promote responsible research practices. TENK’s responsibility is to take initiatives in research integrity by issuing statements and by providing general guidelines.
