Abstract

This commentary reviews four case studies involving questionable research and publication tactics in academia. Warnings and possible solutions are proposed for each ethical infraction. The editors encourage full disclosure when preparing resume and submitting tenure, promotion, and merit materials. For co-authored articles, explain one's exact contribution and provide letters of collaboration from co-authors. Be wary of departmental politics, and provide copious documentation to support claims of scholarships.
