Interactive Lab Part 2

• I played as Beth Ridgley


• I decided to send the email to get people familiarized with and thinking about research integrity.


• In the decision of was research misconduct committed, I chose No because Liam didn't have sufficient evidence that misconduct occurred or sufficient motive that the researcher would have committed it.


• In the second case of research misconduct I asked the student to come to my office immediately to make her feel comfortable and so that she feels I really care about her problem.


• I let her speak so that she can get her story out there before I tell her about how the process works


• I chose not to drop the investigation just because there may be some relationship drama in the allegation


• I'm new on the job so I chose to call the old RIO to get his advice


• I chose to use a backup team just in-case I need help


• I also chose to grab the data immediately to not give him time to hide anything


• I talked to the PI to get the situation under control to solve things peacefully
