Question: Provide the type of research misconduct for each of the following scenarios. Also provide a brief definition and a justification for your selection.

  1. After submitting your thesis to your advisor, they create a poster based on your research. They plan to present the poster at an annual public health conference, but they fail to include your name as one of the authors on the poster.
  2. You are studying the relationship between exposure to Chemical X in childhood and Alzheimer’s disease in later life. You decide to conduct a case-control study and your power calculations indicate that you will need to enroll 300 cases and 300 controls. You have administered a questionnaire to 150 cases and 150 controls, and your boss is pressuring you to finish administering the questionnaire to the remaining participants by the end of the week. A colleague suggests that you duplicate the data records for the 150 cases and 150 controls who have already completed the questionnaire to make it seem like you finished collected data on all 300 cases and 300 controls.
  3. You are working on a research project exploring the relationship between low birthweight status and childhood IQ. You hypothesize a positive association between birthweight status and childhood IQ, but your initial data visualizations show a few low birthweight participants who have remarkably high childhood IQs. You decide these high IQs must be a mistake, so you edit the data records to reduce their IQs to the average IQ of all the other low birthweight participants.
