NEW YORK - It's not the stuff of headlines, like fraud. But more mundane misbehavior by scientists is common enough that it may pose an even greater threat to the integrity of science, a new report asserts.
One-third of scientists surveyed said that within the previous three years, they'd engaged in at least one practice that would probably get them into trouble, the report said. Examples included circumventing minor aspects of rules for doing research on people and overlooking a colleague's use of flawed data or questionable interpretation of data.

Sounds like a lot of scientists are throwing rocks in glass houses when they criticize creationists!
*\ enlargement pills?
You have to do research before you can mess it up.
lol that's the first thing that came to my mind.
bttt
How about "Pepper Moth"?
Since they interviewed the scientists themselves rather than discovering it empirically, I would not take much stock in the results. Human nature is such that most will not admit making such mistakes.
That's funny...pity the poor scientists not doing the research on creationism before they actually criticize it!
How would such research be conducted?
Actually those numbers look pretty good to me.
Last I heard, we don't get fitted for halos upon being awarded a PhD.
That's why scientific papers are required to be very specific...the labs at Harvard get a chance to double check Stanford's work. Any experimental process has to work the same way in my lab as in yours. Predicions have to be published.
A mistake may get a (sort of) pass if immediately acknowledged. Indications of deliberate distortions can end a career.
By making up the data of course, as the article stated! Sounds like corruption has entered even into the Elysian fields of science....it's one thing if you question the 'honesty' of creationist scientists...but now you can't even trust the ethical atheism of the practitioners of the "New Way" known as the scientific method!(sarcasm on)
Well I guess its back to feathers, incense, or to the bowing down before little black meteorites! (just be mindful of who is behind you)
Ain't Misbehavin'
By Louis ArmstrongNo one to talk to ....all by myself
No one to walk with.....I’m happy on the shelf
Ain’t misbehavin’......savin’ all my love for youI know for certain......the one I love
I’m through with flirtin’......it’s just you that I’ve been thinkin’ of
Ain’t misbehavin’.......savin’ all my love for youLike jack horner.....in that ole corner
Don’t go nowhere.....what do I care?
Your kisses are worth waitin’ for......believe meI don’t stay out late.......no where to go
I’m home about eight......just me and my radio
Ain’t misbehavin’.......savin’ all my love for you(instrumental break)
Like jack horner.....in that ole corner
Don’t go nowhere.....what do I care?

I’m home about eight......just me and my radio
Ain’t misbehavin’.......savin’ all my love for youAin’t misbehavin’......I’m savin all my love for you
Maybe we should, if we find one.
Well since we can't trust the veracity of established scientists in maintaining the integrity of reason and logic amongst their own members...we can't even trust them to define what a scientist truly is now can we?
Revelation 4:11
See my profile for info
Scientists constantly circle each other like sharks, waiting for a sign of weakness. A piece of bad logic would bring them all in for the kill. A piece of bad math would bring in mathematicians as well, and they are even more predatory. They are not working together even if they appear to be working in the same direction.
This is funny. We, for the most part, don't have the ability to pass judgement on scientists. It takes math; if you don't have math you can't even speak science.
