Ethics of scientific publication: (Mal)-practices and Consequentialism (Conference Paper)
MPSoC Architectures Research Group, RWTH Aachen, Germany
Abstract
In this paper, we
review the ethical issues involved with scientific publication. The
possible mal-practices are discussed. Deterrents to those mal-practices
are often difficult to apply considering the scale and scope of every
issue. On the other hand, as a researcher, one can get a strong moral
standpoint with an understanding of moral philosophies. In this paper we
link a particular moral philosophy, namely, the Consequentialist
philosophy to the scientific practices. From the perspective of
Consequentialism, the issues of scientific mal-practice and their
deterrents are discussed. We further discuss possible large-scale
countermeasures via alternative publication systems and show its
relation to Consequentialism. © 2014 IEEE.
