Authorship

1. Lead Author
   As a practical matter in the case of publications with multiple authors, one author should be designated as the lead author. The lead author assumes overall responsibility for the manuscript, and also often serves as the managerial and corresponding author, as well as providing a significant contribution to the research effort. A lead author is not necessarily the principal investigator or project leader. The lead author is responsible for:
   1. Authorship: Including as co-authors all and only those individuals who meet the authorship criteria set forth in this policy.
   2. Approval: Providing the draft of the manuscript to each individual contributing author for review and consent for authorship. The lead author should obtain from all coauthors their agreement to be designated as such and their approval of the manuscript. A journal may have specific requirements governing author review and consent, which must be followed.
   3. Integrity: The lead author is responsible for the integrity of the work as a whole, and ensuring that reasonable care and effort has been taken to determine that all the data are complete, accurate, and reasonably interpreted.
2. Co-authors
   All co-authors of a publication are responsible for:
   1. Authorship: By providing consent to authorship to the lead author, co-authors acknowledge that they meet the authorship criteria set forth in section 1 of this policy. A coauthor should have participated sufficiently in the work to take responsibility for appropriate portions of the content.
   2. Approval: By providing consent to authorship to the lead author, co-authors are acknowledging that they have reviewed and approved the manuscript.
   3. Integrity: Each co-author is responsible for the content of all appropriate portions of the manuscript, including the integrity of any applicable research.
   An individual retains the right to refuse co-authorship of a manuscript if s/he does not satisfy the criteria for authorship.
3. Acknowledgments
   Individuals who may have made some contribution to a publication, but who do not meet the criteria for authorship, such as staff, editorial assistants, medical writers, or other individuals, can provide a valuable contribution to the writing and editing of publications. Since those contributions do not meet the criteria for authorship under this policy, those individuals should be listed in an acknowledgement and/or contributorship section of the work.

Editor's observation: Review process takes time due to some limitations in presentation. These are (a) absence of the operational definition of all research variables; (b) absence of justification for their inclusion in current research; (c) absence of sample items to assess research constructs, reliability and validity of the instrument used. (d) absence of indication by the total score; (e) absence of discussion with available theories or own insight about research findings. Please include the above in your text. Best of luck!
