'''Scientific fraud''' has always been a problem. People claiming to have discovered something, when they know they really haven't, have fooled many people many times. (See [[history of science]]). Scientific fraud differs from [[scientific error]], since in the case of fraud the researcher ''knows'' his findings aren't actually supported by the available evidence.

Scientific fraud differs from scientific error, since in the case of fraud the researcher ''knows'' his findings aren't actually supported by the available evidence.  Types of scientific fraud today include statistical analyses until a statistically significant result is generated (“P-hacking”) and hypothesizing after results are known (“HARK”), as well as the more traditional cherry-picking of data.
