Description
Survey data of psychometric properties was evaluated to investigate the prevalence of research misbehaviors in the Middle East. The survey implemented an "attitude" scale, a 21 question survey using a five-point Likert scale. The 254 respondents included academic faculty, individuals with master's and PhD degrees, postdoctoral students, senior undergraduates, and individuals working in research positions. The attitude scale was adapted from a prior questionnaire survey - A Cross-Sectional Survey Study to Assess Prevalence and Attitudes Regarding Research Misconduct among Investigators in the Middle East doi /10.1007/s10805-017-9295-9
