越来越多的杂志或期刊选择在已发表的论文中标识出作者贡献(Author contributions),好处是可以凸显和确认每个作者在学习工作中扮演的角色,避免随便挂名的现象。当然,如果想随便搭车,也总能找到相应的贡献,从这点讲这个所谓的Author contributions也就没有意义了,所以,第一作者和通讯作者自己心中的那杆秤才是做重要的,杜绝人情挂名和刻意讨好别人才能净化学术空气。
Author contributions在不同的杂志有不同的表达形式,但主要都是从试验设计、试验实施、数据分析和写作几块进行角色定位。如果一篇论文只有一个作者,那么这个Author contributions就很简单。如果碰到很懒的作者,认为Author contributions没有必要写的那么详细,干脆all the authors designed research, performed research, analyzed data, and wrote the paper,那也是令期刊编辑很头疼的,不是没有这种可能,只是给人一种敷衍的感觉罢了。
下面有几个杂志的作者贡献表达形式,其中PNAS是我最喜欢的,因为它最简洁。
