Fox, Mary Frank
Journal of Higher Education, v65 n3 p298-309 May-Jun 1994
The role of editors and peer reviewers in detecting and sanctioning scientific misconduct is analyzed, structural problems inherent in the process are examined, and best means of enabling peer and editorial roles in correction of misconduct are discussed. It is argued that the review process plays a limited corrective role. (MSE)
