          Abstract

          ABSTRACT Research integrity has been under scrutiny, especially in regard to the legitimacy of academic authorship and co-authorship. We aim to bring a critical perspective to the debate, firstly by presenting how past and recent publications discuss (co-)authorship, and next by developing an appraisal analysis of discourse elements that make types of social sanction regarding the topic available. We conclude by pointing out certain criteria that validate (co-) authorship and kinds of evaluation produced in the reviewed literature. Our results indicate that (co-)authoship credit is affected by power relations and personal interest and that multiauthored publication is gaining significance in collaborative network research environments.

          RESUMO Integridade em pesquisa tem estado sob escrutínio, especialmente em relação à legitimidade de autoria e de coautoria acadêmica. Nosso objetivo é trazer uma perspectiva crítica ao debate, primeiramente apresentando o modo como publicações prévias e recentes discutem (co)autoria e, a seguir, desenvolvendo uma análise da avaliatividade de elementos do discurso que disponibilizam tipos de sanção social em relação ao tópico. Concluímos, apontando certos critérios que validam (co)autoria e tipos de avaliação produzidos na literatura revisada. Nossos resultados indicam que a atribuição de (co)autoria é afetada por relações de poder e interesses pessoais e também que a publicação assinada por vários autores está ganhando significação em contextos em que a pesquisa é feita em redes colaborativas.

            The White Bull effect: abusive coauthorship and publication parasitism.

            Junior researchers can be abused and bullied by unscrupulous senior collaborators. This article describes the profile of a type of serial abuser, the White Bull, who uses his academic seniority to distort authorship credit and who disguises his parasitism with carefully premeditated deception. Further research into the personality traits of such perpetrators is warranted.

              What are the factors determining authorship and the order of the authors' names? A study among authors of the Nederlands Tijdschrift voor Geneeskunde (Dutch Journal of Medicine).

              Although criteria justifying authorship of scientific medical articles have been formulated, it is not well known how authorship is established in practice. To assess the criteria for authorship used by authors of original articles in Nederlands Tijdschrift voor Geneeskunde (NTVG, the Dutch Journal of Medicine), and to determine whether the criteria for authorship of the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) are known and applied. Survey questionnaire. Editorial office of the NTVG. All 450 authors of 115 original articles published in 1995. Author's contribution to study design, material, collection of data, statistics, and writing. Of 362 forms returned, 352 could be analyzed (78.2% response rate). The 5 questions most frequently answered affirmatively were ICMJE criteria: critical reading (86.1 % of the authors), approval of the final version (84.7%), study design (74.7%), study conception (64.2%), and revision (63.4%). Authors rated their contribution 2 points higher than did their coauthors. Interestingly, 64% of the respondents met the ICMJE criteria, although 60% of the respondents did not know them. Authorship was mostly in accordance with ICMJE criteria although many authors were not familiar with them.
