Annex 1 – Actions and measures relevant to research integrity matched to the UK Concordat
<p>The present dataset is an Annex to the Discussion Document entitled “<a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6827947">Indicators of Research Integrity: An initial exploration of the landscape, opportunities and challenges</a>”. </p> <p>It consists in a longlist of actions and measures that organisations may put in place to support research integrity, building on a set of documents that we considered to represent the perspectives of the stakeholder groups mentioned in the UK Concordat to Support Research Integrity, including: </p> <ul> <li> <p>researchers; </p> </li> <li> <p>employers of researchers (i.e. bodies that conduct or host research; employ, support or host researchers; teach research students; or allow research to be carried out under their auspices); </p> </li> <li> <p>research funders; and </p> </li> <li> <p>other organisations (e.g. professional, statutory and regulatory bodies; academies and learned societies; professional and subject-specific representative bodies; journals and publishers; and organisations offering advice, guidance and support). </p> </li> </ul> <p>The table below provides an overview of the documents covered in the dataset.

Data set accompanying the research article "Complete representation of action space and value in all striatal pathways"
<p>GCaMP6s calcium imaging data set recorded from freely behaving mice performing open field and 2-choice decision-making tasks using miniscopes. Mice were implanted in the right dorsomedial striatum and three types of output neurons were genetically targeted using transgenic Cre-lines. The data set comprises single-cell spatial filters and calcium activity traces extracted using CaImAn (https://github.com/flatironinstitute/CaImAn) as well as behavioral event logs and tracking coordinates. For more details please refer to the article "Complete representation of action space and value in all striatal pathways" published by the data sets' authors. Analysis code can be found at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5034618.</p>
Endurance and Avoidance Response Patterns in Pain Patients: Application of Action Control Theory in Pain Research
<p>Identifying pain-related response patterns and understanding underlying functional mechanisms of symptom formation and recovery are essential steps for tailoring interventions to increase the effectiveness of treatment. The focus of this study thus was to replicate pain-related avoidance and endurance response patterns associated with the Fear-Avoidance Model (FAM) and Avoidance-Endurance Model (AEM) by means of latent profile analysis. Apart from the analysis of primary and other secondary characteristics of the pain response profiles, we especially analyzed the influence of stress and action control as covariates in accordance with Action Control Theory (ACT).</p>
Architecture Decision Records in Practice: An Action Research Study
<p>To establish good architectural practice and knowledge sharing during software development and maintenance, architectural design decisions need to be documented.</p> <p>While a lot of research has been done on documenting architectural decisions, there exist few approaches with empirical evidence on their applicability and usefulness in practice. Architecture Decision Records are a popular documentation approach in industry, but there is a lack of research focusing on how Architecture Decision Records can be introduced in different company contexts.</p> <p>To tackle this shortcoming, we performed an action research study in cooperation with a company that develops a microservice-based system without proper architecture design decision documentation.</p> <p>This dataset encompasses our study material consisting of two questionnaires, our interview guides, and information on the codes used during our analysis.</p> <p> </p> <p>This work was partially supported by the Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP) funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation.</p>

Co-designing conservation interventions through participatory action research in the Indian Trans-Himalaya
<ol> <li> <span>Community-based conservation, despite being more inclusive than fortress conservation, </span><span>has been criticized for being a top-down implementation of external ideas brought to local communities for conservation's benefit. This is particularly true for Changpas, the pastoral people of Changthang in trans-Himalayan India who live alongside unique wildlife. </span> </li> <li><span>Our main aim was to co-design conservation interventions through participatory action research. We worked with two Changpa communities, to understand issues faced by them. Subsequently, we co-designed context-sensitive interventions to facilitate positive human-nature interactions. We did so by integrating the PARTNERS (Presence, Aptness, Respect, Transparency, Empathy, Responsiveness, Strategic Support) principles with the Trinity of Voice (Access, Standing, and Influence). </span></li> <li><span>In Rupsho, we facilitated focus group discussions (FGDs) led by the community. We found livestock depredation by wildlife was primarily facilitated by the weather. This led to co-designing of a new corral design which was piloted with seven households, safeguarding 2,385 pashmina goat and sheep. Approximating the value of each sheep/goat to be USD125, this intervention amounts to a significant economic protection of USDc.42,500 for each household. This is along with intangible gains of trust, ownership, and improved self-esteem. </span></li> <li><span>In Tegazong, a restricted area adjoining the Indo-China border with no previous research records, we worked with 43 Changpa people to co-create research questions of mutual interest. Wildlife presence and reasons for livestock loss were identified as areas of mutual interest. The herders suggested they would record data in a form of their choice, for six months, while they live in their winter pastures. This participatory community monitoring revealed nutrition and hypothermia to be a key cause of livestock death. Subsequently, we delimited two previously untested interventions: lamb cribs and provisioning of locally-sourced barley as feed supplement. The wildlife monitoring recorded the first record of Tibetan Gazelle <em>Procapra picticuadata</em>, outside of their known distribution, in Tegazong. </span></li> <li><span>We aim to highlight the benefits of co-designing projects with local communities that link research and conservation, while also discussing the challenges faced. Ultimately, such projects are needed to ensure ethical knowledge generation and conservation that aims to be decolonial and inclusive.</span></li> </ol>

Competencies Development based on Thinking-based Learning in Software Engineering: An Action-Research
<p>For a long time, the teaching of Software Engineering (SE) has been carried out in a traditional way without taking into account relevant aspects of the student’s personality reflected in their learning. There is still a lack of research focused on SE that promotes adequate teaching methods so that new generations of students and future professionals have a humanistic, critical and reflexive formation. A novel teaching method called Thinking-based Learning (TBL) was proposed to develop effective thinking in students using thinking skills, habits of the mind and the metacognition during the teaching of subject content. The action research as a methodology to improve their teaching practices in education has been seen as a positive change in educational practices. The aim of this research was to perform an action research based on TBL method to assist in the development of competencies that are less attended by traditional methods currently used during the teaching and learning process of students in SE. Moreover, a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was conducted to identify gaps in the contribution of teaching methods in SE until the present. The data are obtained by comparing the competencies achieved with TBL with the traditional methods previously used in the discipline, and additionally with the data obtained from the SLR. The results indicated that critical thinking, autonomy, problem solving and creativity were the most developed competencies by students during the course period. We are planning to expand the TBL and applying it in other disciplines of the same course as well as in other research areas to determine its functionality and interdisciplinarity. We hope that this experience with TBL will encourage the development of competencies among SE teachers.</p>
