Authorship

The system of authorship gives responsibility and credit for the substance of published works. It is impossible to separate accountability from recognition. Providing a factual narrative of the events serves as the foundational idea for authorship establishment. All forms of intellectual work, including releases of text, data, and images in print and digital formats, are subject to the authorship requirements. Furthermore, authorship entails accountability and duty for works that are published. Authors who have made noteworthy intellectual contributions have been published. Authorized writers understand their responsibility and remorse for work they have published. These standards lessen significant uncertainty about contributions, but they don't address the amount and kind of support needed to be an author.

CRITERIA FOR AUTHORSHIP

A list of authors should include all those who made substantial intellectual contributions to the study that served as the basis for the paper, including the research question, design, analysis, interpretation, and written description. Authors should only be those who have significantly advanced human knowledge. Technical services, text translation, patient identification for the study, material delivery, funding, or administrative oversight of the facilities where the work was done do not constitute authorship, even though these contributions might be acknowledged in the publication. The integrity of the entire work should be the responsibility of one author (a "guarantee"). The corresponding author typically submits the work and receives evaluations, while other writers might also fulfill this role.  The final draft of the text needs the approval of all authors. In theory, every writer ought to be knowledgeable about every aspect of the piece. However, as teams of researchers with complementary talents frequently do current research, it's possible that not every author is an expert in every area of the study. As a result, some authors' contributions might only cover a portion of the entire book.

NUMBER, NAMES ORDER, and AUTHORS DISPUTES

The number of authors for each submitted manuscript was not limited by the AREJ editorial board, which allows for both one and multiple authors. Manuscripts with multiple authors often have a stronger scientific and literary structure, particularly when authors contribute ideas from various academic or scientific institutions. When this occurs, a paragraph headed "authors contribution" ought to be added since not every author contributes equally to every stage of the experiment, recording of the results, interpretation of the data, and approval of the final publication.

If more than one author contributed to a single article, each author must meet the minimum authorship criteria standards, as previously stated. The editor in chief may also request further information regarding each author's authorship contribution and justification for being included in the manuscript's authors. The editor in chief reserves the right to remove names from the final acceptable copy of the submitted manuscript if they feel that there has been any nepotism of any type. Furthermore, the writers ought to choose the order in which their names appear. Nobody else understands their agreements and contributions as well as they do. Readers cannot know and should not infer that the authorship order is significant if the authors have not disclosed the process for assigning an authorship order.

Authorship conflicts should ideally be resolved locally prior to the initiation of the journal peer review process; in exceptional circumstances, the Editor in Chief may assist in resolving these issues. Let's say that the sequence of authors is altered or someone is left out. If so, at each stage of the manuscript's peer review, acceptance, and publication, each original author should submit a formal request to support these changes.

 

CONFLICT OF INTEREST

The authors should include a paragraph titled "Conflict of interest" at the end of their submitted manuscript. This paragraph should come before the reference section and should explain and list all potential conflicts of interest pertaining to the submission, peer review, acceptance, and funding of the manuscript. All contributing authors should also approve of this section.
