<p>Responsible conduct of research (RCR) is generally agreed to be a laudable goal. It promotes high quality research practices, which should lead to more credible findings, and instill confidence in the research community. However, it is as yet unclear to what extent RCR differs across disciplines. Currently, many approaches to research and training in RCR are either generalised across all disciplines, at a high level (e.g., international frameworks on research integrity) or at the other extreme, discipline-specific. Relying on the expertise and knowledge of a carefully selected multidisciplinary panel of RCR scholars and practitioners, this Delphi study aims to expand the current (underspecified) frameworks of RCR to develop a more diverse and comprehensive concept of what constitutes RCR across disciplines, along with a mapping that captures this updated understanding. The Delphi process will begin with participants refining a provisional list of dimensions of RCR collated from previous literature and interviews, then will proceed with several rounds of rating the importance of each dimension to particular disciplines. [After completion of the study, we will report the details of participant numbers, rounds of Delphi, and a summary of results here.]</p>

Please do not suggest reviewers for whom there might be a conflict of interest. Reviewers are not allowed to review preprints written by close colleagues (with whom they have published in the last four years, with whom they have received joint funding in the last four years, or with whom they are currently writing a manuscript, or submitting a grant proposal), or by family members, friends, or anyone for whom bias might affect the nature of the review - see the code of conduct
