Abstract
Authorship in a scientific research paper implies public responsibility and accountability regarding the contents in the paper. The person who mainly did the research work and wrote the paper is the first or prime author. Prime author is mainly responsible for the integrity of the work as a whole. Other researchers who made substantial contributions to the work are also listed as coauthors. Here we intend to discuss in details on authorship criteria in scientific papers. We studied the papers obtained from International Committee for Medical Journal Editors, World Health Organization Manual for Biomedical Journal Editors, Stanford online course on Writing in the Sciences and some other related published articles.
