How Many Scientists Fabricate and Falsify Research? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Survey Data

TL;DR: Meta-regression showed that self reports surveys, surveys using the words “falsification” or “fabrication”, and mailed surveys yielded lower percentages of misconduct, and when these factors were controlled for, misconduct was reported more frequently by medical/pharmacological researchers than others.
