Abstract In 2017,a retraction note to 107 articles on Tumor Biology is published by the worldfamous publisher Springer, which raised concerns about the problem of academic misconducts in China.In this article, we use the data from NSFC which contains 88 researchers who are involved in research misconduct during 2013 to 2016.The results show that the academic misconduct mainly originate from three aspects:1) the lure of reward and the institutional requirements 2) scientists’ role conflicts and the order conflicts 3) the asymmetry of reward and punishment.Based on the analysis, we propose several policy suggestions: establishing and strengthening the open data policy;accelerating constructing the credit system; accelerating the reform of performance appraisal;rebalancing the relationship between the reward and punishment to maintain the academic trust, improve the ecology of academia and prevent the academic misconducts.
