What pronouns indicate

Similarly, Andrea L. . Foster in the Chronicles of Higher Education (November 20, 200) reports that out of 1,925 papers run through Turnitin.com, 14 percent were found to have been plagiarized. Statics like those are cause for serious concern. Research like this?and there's a lot of it?suggests that somewhere along the way, parents and educators have fallen down on the job. But there is still time to remedy our error.

I'd like to know what "this" and "it" indicate respectively.
Thank you in advance for your help.
