Verify research integrity and practices, with Trust Marker analysis
Access data uncovering the presence of Trust Markers, the hallmarks of research integrity and open science, in over 33 million publications since 2011.
Dubious content and disinformation damages not only science itself, but also public trust in science and your organization’s reputation.
Dimensions Research Integrity helps to solve it. It’s a powerful way to ascertain author legitimacy, ensure compliance with research reporting guidelines, and reduce reputational risk.
What the Dimensions Research Integrity Dataset can do for you
- Examine articles, book chapters, conference proceedings and preprints, using Trust Markers to assess research transparency and reproducibility.
- Get access to data about what publications contain Trust Markers, the hallmarks of research integrity and open science (data availability statements, competing interest statements, and other indicators of trustworthiness and reproducibility)
- Analyze Trust Markers at the paper level, or aggregate by publisher, funder, or research institution
