Abstract: The basic social and economic function of a science – to provide quality of progress, that is, first, to open its new possibilities and prospects (research), and secondly, to keep a society from precipitate, sometimes dangerous, steps to use of its achievements (examination and the forecast). Last decade has shown that the traditional mechanisms regulating behavior of scientists at performance of both these problems, have appreciably lost the efficiency. In all developed countries that in texts of scientific publications numerous cases of plagiarism are found out began to cause special concern, fabrications of the data, manipulations the data, wrongful expansion of interpretation, unreasonable award of scientific degrees, substandard examination, etc. Scales and danger of such infringements have demanded diverse administrative influences from institutes of scientific community and state bodies. Thereupon researchers even more often come back to fundamental problems of internal and external life of the science, earlier pushed aside on far socially-humanitarian periphery. Among them one of the central places is occupied with a research integrity problem to which consideration given article is devoted.
