description | Authorship is important for research integrity and publication ethics, acting as the basis for
credit and academic achievement. Moreover, publication achievements have a significant impact
on research grants and academic careers. Inappropriate authorship has been reported for
several reasons, including complex interests and competitive environments. One form of this is
representative authorship misuse, which includes honorary and ghost authorships. Kin co-authorship,
such as parent-children authorship, is another form of inappropriate authorship that
has recently emerged as a social problem in Korea. To address these issues, the International
Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) has established criteria for authorship. Similarly,
many journals use the Contributor Roles Taxonomy (CRediT) and Open Researcher and Contributor
ID (ORCID) systems to prevent authorship misuse and systematically evaluate author
credit and responsibility. Herein, this article reviews authorship and inappropriate authorship,
as well as introduces methods to avoid authorship misuse. |
