我知道不同行業對order of author的慣例不一樣,有沒有literature對這個有general的描述?
有個將要出的manuscript,我的contribution在90%+,最後manuscript writing contract給third party做,這意味著contracted writer不屬名。中間,請了個專業人士解釋study results,其實還什麽都沒解釋,因為結果太好,和預期完全一致。比較戲劇化的是,這個專業人士在manuscript phase跳出來說,他應該是first author,因為他會"take care of the manuscript writing and most editing work",which is not true because we have the contracted writer working on that and each author working equally on the edits。
事情的解決不會出什麽大枝節,但大家以後還要合作,我比較想從製度上把它解決掉。當然,我知道,即使有製度,齷齪也還是會有,人性如此。
