Autoría

 

 

Any intellectually significant contribution to a paper is recognized as authorship, which, following the guidelines of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), requires the following requirements:

• To have participated in the conception and design, or in the acquisition or production of the data, or in the analysis and interpretation of the data of the work that has resulted in the article.
• To have participated in the drafting or critical revision of the text.
• To have approved the version that will finally be published.

Those who do not meet these three criteria can only be recognized in the acknowledgements.

To specify the contribution of each author to the work, it is recommended to use the criteria established by the CRediT taxonomy (Contributor Roles Taxonomy); the contribution of each of the authors should be stated at the end of the article in a note called “Statement of authorship contribution”.

To determine the order in which the article is signed, authors can use any of the three most common practices. At Identity Papers, we recommend the third:

• “First-last-author-emphasis” approach (FLAE): lthe first signature and the last signature are equally important. Between them, the signature order is considered to indicate decreasing contributions.
• “Sequence-determines-credit” approach (SDC): order indicates importance.
• “Equal contribution” norm (EC): alphabetical sequence is used to recognize similar contributions or to avoid disputes in collaborative groups.

To eliminate name confusion and ensure proper attribution of publications and citations correctly, this journal requires the ORCID ID for all authorships. Although it alone cannot guarantee a secure identity, the adoption of ORCID is a further check against authorship identity fraud.
