Honesty

  • Accurately report data, results, methods, and procedures.
  • Strive to avoid or minimize bias or self-deception.

Transparency

Review: CRI AI Guidelines in Research

CRI has drafted a set of provisional AI Guidelines in Research, based on current government guidance. This material may be subject to change and researchers are encouraged to connect with CRI for additional assistance.

Conflicts of Interest

  • Avoid situations whereby you or project participants may have a personal advantage or interest in the research outcome. ​
  • This may compromise results and/or create the perception of compromised results.​
  • Personal, interpersonal, or financial relationships may create conflicts of interest.​
  • Economic and/or academic interest (e.g. an individual holds dual roles at an institution) may also compromise the integrity of the research.​
