Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 45 / Thursday, March 7, 2013 / Notices
has taken final action in the following
case:
Adam C. Savine, Washington
University in St. Louis: Based on the
report from Washington University in
St. Louis (WUSTL) and Respondent’s
admission, ORI found that Mr. Adam C.
Savine, former doctoral student,
Department of Psychology, WUSTL,
engaged in research misconduct in
research supported by National Institute
of Mental Health (NIMH), National
Institutes of Health (NIH), grant R56
MH066078, National Institute on Drug
Abuse (NIDA), NIH, grants F31
DA032152 and R21 DA027821, and
National Institute on Aging (NIA), NIH,
grant T32 AG00030.
ORI found that the Respondent
engaged in research misconduct by
falsifying data that were included in the
following three publications and six
conference abstracts:

As a result of the Respondent’s
admission, the senior authors will
request that the published papers be
retracted or corrected.
ORI finds that Respondent falsified
data and related text in Cogn Affect
Behav Neurosci. 2012, J Exp Psychol
Gen. 2012, J Neurosci. 2010, and in six
(6) meeting abstracts, by altering the
experimental data to improve the
statistical results. Specifically,
Respondent:
1. Falsified data in Cogn Affect Behav
Neurosci. 2012 to show an unambiguous
dissociation between local and global
motivational effects. Specifically,
Respondent exaggerated (1) the effect of
incentive context on response times and
error rates in Table 1 and Figures 1 and
3 for experiment 1 and (2) the effect of
incentive cue timing on response times
and error rates in Table 2 and in Figures
6, 9, and S2 for experiment 2.
2. Falsified data in J Exp Psychol Gen.
2012 to show that prospective memory
is influenced by three dissociable
underlying monitoring patterns
(attentional focus, secondary memory
retrieval, information thresholding),
which are stable within individuals over
time and are influenced by personality
and cognitive differences. Specifically,
Respondent modified the data to
support the three category model and to
show (1) that individuals fitting into
each of the three categories exhibited
differential patterns of prospective
memory performance and ongoing task
performance in Tables 1–3; Figures 5–8,
and (2) that certain cognitive and
personality differences were predictive
of distinct monitoring approaches
within the three categories in Figure 9.
3. Falsified data in J Neurosci. 2010
and mislabeled brain images to show
that motivational incentives enhance
task-switching performance and are
associated with activation of rewardrelated brain regions, behavioral
performance, and trial outcomes.
Specifically, Respondent modified the
data so that he could show a stronger
relationship between brain activity and
behavior in Table 2 and Figure 4 and
used brain images that fit the data rather
than the images that corresponded to
the actual Talairach coordinates in
Figure 3.
Mr. Savine has entered into a
Voluntary Settlement Agreement and
has voluntarily agreed for a period of
three (3) years, beginning on February
22, 2013:
(1) To have his research supervised;
Respondent agreed that prior to the
submission of an application for U.S.
PO 00000
Frm 00036
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Public Health Service (PHS) support for
a research project on which his
participation is proposed and prior to
his participation in any capacity on
PHS-supported research, Respondent
shall ensure that a plan for supervision
of his duties is submitted to ORI for
approval; the supervision plan must be
designed to ensure the scientific
integrity of his research contribution; he
agreed that he shall not participate in
any PHS-supported research until such
a supervision plan is submitted to and
approved by ORI; Respondent agreed to
maintain responsibility for compliance
with the agreed upon supervision plan;
(2) That any institution employing
him shall submit, in conjunction with
each application for PHS funds, or
report, manuscript, or abstract involving
PHS-supported research in which
Respondent is involved, a certification
to ORI that the data provided by
Respondent are based on actual
experiments or are otherwise
legitimately derived and that the data,
procedures, and methodology are
accurately reported in the application,
report, manuscript, or abstract;
(3) To exclude himself voluntarily
from serving in any advisory capacity to
PHS including, but not limited to,
service on any PHS advisory committee,
board, and/or peer review committee, or
as a consultant; and
(4) That the senior authors will
request that the following papers be
retracted or corrected: Cogn Affect
Behav Neurosci. 2012, J Exp Psychol
Gen. 2012, and J Neurosci. 2010.

On June
10, 2010, the President issued Executive
Order 13544 to comply with the statutes
under Section 4001 of the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act,
Public Law 111–148. This legislation
mandated that the Advisory Group was
to be established within the Department
of Health and Human Services. The
charter for the Advisory Group was
approved by the Secretary of Health and
Human Services on June 23, 2010; the
charter was filed with the appropriate
Congressional committees and the
Library of Congress on June 24, 2010.
The Advisory Group was established as
a non-discretionary federal advisory
committee. The Advisory Group was
authorized to operate until June 10,
2012. Because the Advisory Group had
been established by Presidential
directive, it was necessary for
appropriate action to be taken by the
President or agency head to give
authorization for the Advisory Group to
be continued. The President issued
Executive Order 13591, dated November
23, 2011, to give authorization for the
Advisory Group to continue to operate
until September 30, 2012. No action was
taken to continue the Advisory Group
after the designated date. Therefore, the
Advisory Group was terminated on
September 30, 2012. On December 7,
2012, the President issued Executive
Order 13631 to re-establish the Advisory
Group. A charter was developed for this
purpose. The charter was approved by
the Secretary of Health and Human
Services and filed with the appropriate
Congressional committees, the Library
of Congress, and the Committee
