Abstract
Academic integrity and research ethics are not only areas of administrative and professional practice, but they are also research areas. In this session I explore the various facets of academic integrity and research ethics as areas of transdisciplinary scholarship including the historical development of the field; the plurality of methodological approaches used; and the diversity of theoretical and conceptual foundations that underpin the research. I explore threats to the development of the field such scholarship being dismissed or discounted by peers from different disciplinary backgrounds; and increased tensions when trying to navigate peer review. I conclude with a call to action for increased tolerance of methodological, theoretical, and axiological diversity and for cultivating deeper appreciation for research designs and approaches that differ from one’s own disciplinary training.
