Not Everything Can Be Decreed

Journal Title: Roczniki Psychologiczne - Year 2014, Vol 17, Issue 3

Abstract

The struggle against pathology in the form of plagiarism or data falsification is undoubtedly neces-sary. However, limiting such efforts to building a system of control will turn this struggle into a cops-and-robbers game played by controllers and dishonest scientists. In this kind of game, the robbers will prevail sooner or later. Institutional solutions should therefore lead to building a sys­tem enabling open access to raw data and making it possible to publish results in which no statisti-cally significant differences were found between conditions. What is even more important is organ-ic work in the academic community and the realization that dishonesty will hit all of us.
