1. What is the first author?
Science and technology and social science usually adopt such a structure: that is, the first author, the second author ......The last one is the corresponding author. Among them, the first author should be the one who contributed the most. Therefore, when evaluating job titles, the first author should be the most critical.
2. Qualifications of the first author.
Must be the main member involved in the research of the ** topic.
Must be the writer of the **.
Must be the person who is primarily responsible for the **.
Must be the person who completed the first draft or revised draft of the **.
Must be a person who works in a unit or school with the ** signature.
Must be the ** supervisor or project leader.
Must be the person who signed the **.
3. Identification of the first author.
The position of the first author of the byline is arranged according to the size of the contribution, and the person with the largest contribution is ranked first, in order.
The corresponding author and the first author of some ** are the same person, and the corresponding author and the first author of some ** are not the same person. It depends on whether the leader or person in charge of the research topic is the author of the **. If the leader or person in charge of the project is the author of the **, then he is the first author, and the corresponding author should be another person.
When evaluating the title, the identification of the first author should be determined according to the content and structure of the ** and the degree of contribution of the author. The first author cannot be identified solely on the basis of the position of the attribution. Some people have played an important role in the research of the topic, but they have not signed the position of the first author on the **, which is unreasonable.
If there are two or more first authors in an article, then the contributions of these first authors should be the same and should not be prioritized. In this case, the first author position should be assigned according to the degree of contribution of each author.
If an article is completed by multiple authors, then each author should have a corresponding contribution. In this case, the attribution should be assigned according to the degree of contribution of each author. Authorship should not be excluded just because the contribution is small.
If there is no corresponding author in the attribution of an article or there is no corresponding author ***, then the attribution position should be assigned according to the degree of contribution of each author. Authorship should not be excluded just because the contribution is small.
If a co-first author is present in an article, then the contributions of these co-first authors should be the same and should not be prioritized. In this case, the first author position should be assigned according to the degree of contribution of each author.
If a co-corresponding author is present in an article, then the contributions of these co-corresponding authors should be the same and should not be prioritized. In this case, the corresponding author position should be assigned according to the degree of contribution of each author.
In short, the qualifications of the first author should be determined by the degree of his or her contribution to the **, not only by the position of the authorship. Only by determining the position of the authorship according to the degree of contribution of each author can the fairness and rationality of the academic ** be guaranteed.
