这一切都很容易与photoshop 1。在成像软件变得如此广泛可用之前的日子里,在暗室中对图像数据进行调整需要相当大的努力和/或专业知识。现在,调整或修改数字图像文件非常简单,因此很有诱惑力。然而,许多此类操作构成对原始数据的不适当更改,并且进行此类更改可被归类为科学不端行为。熟练的编辑人员可以利用成像软件中的功能发现这种操纵,因此操纵也是一个冒险的提议。因此,为了保护研究的完整性,科学界对被认为的科学不端行为采取了强有力的行动。在美国政府目前提供的定义中:“研究不端行为被定义为在提出、执行或审查研究,或在报告研究成果时的捏造、伪造或剽窃。”例如,显示一个图形,其中图像的一部分被选择性地改变或重建,以显示最初不存在的东西(例如,添加-
It’s all so easy with Photoshop1. In the days before imaging software became so widely available, making adjustments to image data in the darkroom required considerable effort and/or expertise. It is now very simple, and thus tempting, to adjust or modify digital image files. Many such manipulations, however, constitute inappropriate changes to your original data, and making such changes can be classified as scientific misconduct. Skilled editorial staff can spot such manipulations using features in the imaging software, so manipulation is also a risky proposition.Good science requires reliable data. Consequently, to protect the integrity of research, the scientific community takes strong action against perceived scientific misconduct. In the current definition provided by the US government:“Research misconduct is defined as fabrication, falsification, or plagiarism in proposing, performing, or reviewing research, or in reporting research results.” For example, showing a figure in which part of the image was either selectively altered or reconstructed to show something that did not exist originally (for example, add-
