Trusted Scientific Practices of Research Integrity

Research Integrity related claims are made when there is a suspicion of a violation of publication ethics policies, either prior to or following publication.

A leading open access publisher was looking to outsource the Research Integrity claims handling process. The publisher selected Straive to conduct the initial investigation and also handle the claims on their behalf.

Straive set-up a dedicated team of experienced Editorial Assistants with thorough knowledge of the complete peer review process as part of the research integrity team. The Research Integrity Team ensures:

• Journals follow the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) guidelines
• Monitors misconduct behaviors, and places preventive and corrective actions to reduce them
• Support for publisher in-house staff with initial analysis, review, and documentation
