Abstract Research dishonesty is the behavior that violates the code of conduct or norms in scientific research and related activities. It is the obligation for all researchers to obey the law that they have to act corresponding to the norms and be honest in scientific research. Once research dishonesty appears, the responsibility of relevant persons has to be investigated. Rules for dealing with research dishonesty include substantive rules and procedural rules, and the latter one is the core in dealing with research dishonest activities. At present, China has issued a large number of laws, rules, regulations and normative documents on the construction of scientific research integrity and the treatment of dishonest research, but there are still some problems, for instance, the diverse bodies of formulation creating the phenomenon of "different treatment on the same issue", and "more efficiency rather than procedures" under the pressure of public opinion. Procedural construction has to be strengthened to defend the legitimate rights and interests of relevant parties, such as separating investigation and treatment, upgrading the system of the information disclosure and confidentiality, establishing the system of hearing on major issues, and perfecting the administrative reconsideration and litigation system.
