评估 LLM 作为合作研究者科研诚信的诊断框架

arXiv:2608.12345v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Language models are increasingly deployed as co-scientists, yet their ability to uphold research integrity under institutional pressure remains unmeasured. We introduce IntegrityBench, a benchmark evaluating misconduct classification, ethical action reasoning and artifact-grounded decision making across 36 paired tasks under a 5-level implicit-explicit pressure protocol spanning 3 domains and 4 research stages. Evaluating 18 frontier model variants, we find that under peak pressure, models fail roughly 1 in 3 integrity-critical decisions, and neither scale nor reasoning ability reliably mitigates this. Explicit pressures induce compliance with misconduct, while implicit contextual reframing more often causes over-refusal of legitimate research tasks. Interestingly, models failing to classify research requests accurately perform equally or better on artifact-grounded decision making (85.7 vs. 79.4), suggesting the three facets are structurally dissociated and correct ethical action does not require accurate classification. Frontier models can thus appear helpful while harbouring integrity failures that create two distinct deployment risks: facilitating research misconduct and eroding trust in AI-assisted research.
