Abstract
ABSTRACTDrawing on the need to shift from competency‐based information literacy instruction to critical information literacy instruction, this study examines scholarly communication and scholarly misconduct in the health sciences based on literary evidence. We report on a qualitative systematic review of forms of scholarly misconduct in the health sciences and participants' attitudes towards these phenomena, with the goal of developing new, critical, approaches to information literacy instruction. The data synthesis process indicates there are four major areas of misconduct in health science research: in conducting research, publishing, following research protocols and determining authority. This categorization informs a framework for critical information literacy dispositions and pedagogies for researchers across health disciplines and geographies.
