The Role of Scientific Profiles of University Professors in Ensuring Academic Integrity

Abstract

"According to World Development Indicators (WDI), there are around 3 million scientists in the world who have published more than 2.5 million articles in scientific journals in 2018. Most scientific journals adhere to Open Access policies, so the articles presented in them can be read and used by other scholars in their future works. That is why the issue of identifying authors and adhering to academic integrity by them is gaining particular importance. To some extent, the scientific profiles of authors of publications can solve this issue, provided they are properly used. In addition, scientific profiles contribute to the dissemination of information about scientific achievements as they contain general information about authors, which can be used for receiving grants, participation in conferences, peer reviews of other researchers, international rankings, etc."
