I n recent years, seemingly frequent examples of problems related to the integrity of authorship and publication have plagued the medical literature. These issues have been primarily related to the appropriateness of authorship (including ghostwriting and so-called " guest authorship " of manuscripts), duplicate publication of articles, plagiarism, scientific misconduct in the form of falsifica...

Authorship attribution assigns works of contentious authorship to their rightful owners solving cases of theft, plagiarism and authorship disputes in academia and industry. In this paper we investigate the application of information retrieval techniques to attribution of authorship of C source code. In particular, we explore novel methods for converting C code into documents suitable for retrie...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate evidence about authorship issues and provide synthesis of research on authorship across all research fields.

Search was limited to original artic...

collaboration networks are the basis of development of social knowledge domains. a co-authorship network includes a set of people connected to each other because of their cooperation in publication of articles and thus create a huge graph.this study has analyzed co-authorship papers of civilica, islamic world science citation center (isc), scientific information database (sid) and science direc...

Three studies investigated how subliminally primed thoughts of an agent prior to action can aVect ascriptions of authorship for that action. Participants competed against a computer program to remove words from a computer screen. Participants reported greater feelings of authorship when primed with Wrst person singular pronouns, and lower feelings of authorship when primed with “computer.” We a...
