The kinetic order of any elementary reaction or reaction step is equal to its molecularity, and the rate equation of an elementary reaction can therefore be determined by inspection, from the molecularity. [1] The kinetic order of a complex (multistep) reaction, however, is not necessarily equal to the number of molecules involved.
Research integrity or scientific integrity became an autonomous concept within scientific ethics in the late 1970s.

[7] In other words, ELSA genomics as the handmaiden of genomics ...
Maria Ossowska thought that sociology was inextricably related to philosophical reflections on morality, including normative ethics.

Ethical naturalism has been criticized most prominently [according to whom?] by ethical non-naturalist G. E. Moore, who formulated the open-question argument.Garner and Rosen say that a common definition of "natural property" is one "which can be discovered by sense observation or experience, experiment, or through any of the available means of science."
