Abstract
Present article reflects about motivations for research misconduct using articles found in medline covering the topic. The types of research misconduct reported is explained. Conclusion: there is need for training in research integrity in Institutions that carry out research and of developing institutional mechanisms to prevent research misconduct. To reinforce the training, ways of acknowledgement and incentives to avoid competition among researchers are proposed in order to foster a collective ethics.
