Fabrication is the illegitimate construction of data or results and recording or reporting them. Fabrication of research data is considered research misconduct, and is subject to significant sanctions which could include academic dismissal and/or revocation of an awarded degree.

Capella University expects that research will be conducted with integrity, and that individuals engaged in research make themselves aware of what constitutes ethical and responsible conduct in research. Capella University researchers, including employees, learners, and others engaged in academic research as part of their employment or educational responsibilities, are expected to refrain from research misconduct.

Review Capella University Policy 03.03.06 Research Misconduct for more information on research misconduct.
