Abstract

Irene Hames, an experienced journal managing editor, in her book ‘Peer Review and Manuscript Management in Scientific Journals’, says: ‘education can play a large part in decreasing the incidence of misconduct, by making individuals realise that certain behaviour is inappropriate, by creating an awareness of ethical issues, and by introducing the concept of good practice in scientific research and publication from an early age’.
