The fundamental theory of research is based on obtaining new knowledge according to observable phenomena or facts. The goals of an original research are description, prediction, explanation and application to answer the fundamental research quest and finding an applied procedure to solve a typical problem. With the expansion of Universities and research institutes, the codification and explanation of conceptual models, criteria, standards, benchmarks and rules are instrumental, in order to conduction and collaboration of all the research activities, according to the visions and missions, leading to enactment and endorsement of regulations and style sheets determining the manner and behavior of researchers and the Universities. Choosing an inappropriate conceptual model, invariably causes deviated research activities by Universities and research institutes, which reshapes the research to a decorative matter, hampering the acquisition of valid applied knowledge, but might serve the researcher’s career interests, as well as climbing the academic, social, and even political ladders. The pressure for increasing the number of publications, as the main evaluation criteria in a pathologic competitive atmosphere, caused extensive deviations in the research behavior of Universities and research institutes. The evaluation of the originality of research activities and the outcomes (publications, technologies, new procedures and problem-solving abilities) from the decorative, marginal and mainly focused on increasing publishing article numbers, would be accomplished by considering how research articles follow the logic of scientific discovery criteria.
