Sažetak
Objective Through the scientific project “Research integrity climate at Croatian university, ” we aim to assess scientists’ perceptions of the organizational climate for responsible research practices at the University of Rijeka (UniRi) and compare the differences in perception between different scientific disciplines, and academic ranks. Method Scientists (n=1300) and Ph.D. students (n=1000) from different disciplines and academic ranks at the University of Rijeka will be asked to answer the translated and validated Survey of Organizational Research (SOuRCe). The SOuRCe consists of 32 items that assess organizational research climate for responsible research practices at institutional and departmental levels. Additionally, we will ask two questions considering respondents’ scientific discipline and academic rank. Results The data collection is expected to end in March 2022 which will provide enough time to prepare results for the presentation at 7th WCRI in June 2022. We expect a response rate of 20%. Our results will reveal the overall level of the perceived research integrity climate within UniRi. We will present the level of the perceived research integrity climate among specific areas such as communication process, ethical leadership, documents on responsible conduct of research, and risk factors of research integrity. Furthermore, we expect to determine the possible differences in perception of research integrity climate between academic ranks and scientific discipline. Conclusion Our project results will provide comparable quantitative results for the assessment of organizational research climate in Croatian academic institutions, with identified areas that need improvement. Potential limitations are the relatively low response rate and socially desirable responses of the respondents.
