ThemesStandards of authorship
What is this about?
This page describes how credit is allocated when researchers collaborate on publications.
Why is this important?
Collaborations are more frequent and publications are a key source of academic credit and career advancement. It is increasingly important to allocate credit for contributions to research in a fair and transparent way.
The UK Research Integrity Office outlines why authorship standards matter:
“Correct authorship of research publications matters because authorship confers credit, carries responsibility, and readers should know who has done the research. Denying authorship to somebody who deserves it denies recognition and academic credit since publications are used to assess academic productivity. Including an undeserving author is unfair since this person gets credit for work they have not done. Omitting a deserving author from an author also list misleads readers (including journal editors) and may mask conflicts of interest.” (1).For whom is this important?
