| Abstract: | Investigated 68 American Psychological Association members' perceptions of the frequency, wrongness, and recommended sanctions for the unethical research practices of plagiarism and data fabrication through surveys that contained 2 scenarios, one depicting plagiarism and the other data fabrication by a psychologist, and questions regarding the psychologist's behavior. Results show that Ss believed that researchers infrequently engage in these behaviors and that adjudication procedures would be recommended when the behaviors did occur; action was recommended more often for plagiarism than for data fabrication.
