Abstract

Authorship provides academic recognition for substantial intellectual contributions to scholarly articles. Beyond recognition, authorship has become a form of currency within the academic community, acting as an indicator of academic output and thus influencing standing within an institution and the general medical community. It might further impact salary as well as job and research grant funding opportunities. Unfortunately, this emphasis on authorship has also been linked to instances of misconduct. We discuss our personal experience with editorial misconduct hoping to highlight the issue and thereby increase awareness and peer-to-peer control to reduce future authorship misconduct and to encourage others to speak up.

作者身份不当行为：编辑处理作者身份时的职业不当行为。

作者身份是对学术论文中实质性智力贡献的学术认可。除了认可之外，作者身份已成为学术界的一种货币形式，是学术成果的一种指标，从而影响着一个机构和整个医学界的地位。它可能会进一步影响薪酬以及工作和研究基金资助机会。遗憾的是，对作者身份的强调也与不当行为有关。我们讨论了自己在编辑不当行为方面的亲身经历，希望强调这一问题，从而提高人们的意识，加强同行之间的控制，减少未来的作者不当行为，并鼓励其他人大胆直言。
