Statement of Authorship Form In accordance with the , researchers have a responsibility to their colleagues and the wider community to disseminate a full account of their research and to acknowledge those who have contributed to it. Authorship should be discussed between researchers at an early stage in a project, and reviewed whenever there are changes in participation and/or the content of the publication. As stipulated in the policy and guidelines, only persons who have participated in a substantial way in at least part of the relevant research should be included as an author of a publication derived from that research. The requirements for authorship depend to some extent on the discipline, but must be based on substantial contributions in a combination of: conception and design of the project; analysis and interpretation of research data; drafting or revising significant parts of the work. An author's role in a research output must be sufficient for that person to take public responsibility for at least that part of the output in that person's area of expertise. When there is more than one author of a publication, one co-author (by agreement amongst the authors) should be nominated as executive author for the whole research output. Executive authors must offer authorship to all people, including research trainees, who meet the criteria of authorship. Those declining authorship must do so in writing. Executive authors must retain records of rejections of offers of authorship. This form is available as a resource to executive authors to assist them with these requirements. Please note that the use of this form is optional, as any form of written confirmation is sufficient.
