科学著作权在科学中具有重要意义,因为它反映了不同科学家个人对研究的贡献,并由评价委员会在研究评估过程中加以考虑。本研究分析了西班牙CSIC(WoS,1994-2004)的1 064名常任科学家的科学产出的作者顺序。在三个不同的研究领域:生物学和生物医学,材料科学和自然资源的影响,年龄,专业级别和文献计量学的配置文件的科学家在他们的名字在出版物的署名的位置进行了探讨。年轻研究人员和较低专业级别的研究人员的签名出现在第一个位置(初级签名模式)的趋势很强,而更资深或高级的研究人员,他们往往在研究中发挥监督作用,按比例更有可能在最后一个位置签名(高级签名模式)。专业级别和年龄对三个领域的作者顺序都有影响,但领域间存在差异。作者模式在合作最密集的领域(即生物学和生物医学)中尤其明显,在确定科学家在研究中的作用方面,专业级别似乎比年龄更重要,如通过他们的作者模式所看到的,而年龄在合作最不密集的领域(自然资源)中有更显着的影响。
Scientific authorship has important implications in science since it reflects the contribution to research of the different individual scientists and it is considered by evaluation committees in research assessment processes. This study analyses the order of authorship in the scientific output of 1,064 permanent scientists at the Spanish CSIC (WoS, 1994–2004). The influence of age, professional rank and bibliometric profile of scientists over the position of their names in the byline of publications is explored in three different research areas: Biology and Biomedicine, Materials Science and Natural Resources. There is a strong trend for signatures of younger researchers and those in the lower professional ranks to appear in the first position (junior signing pattern), while more veteran or highly-ranked ones, who tend to play supervisory functions in research, are proportionally more likely to sign in the last position (senior signing pattern). Professional rank and age have an effect on authorship order in the three fields analysed, but there are inter-field differences. Authorship patterns are especially marked in the most collaboration-intensive field (i.e. Biology and Biomedicine), where professional rank seems to be more significant than age in determining the role of scientists in research as seen through their authorship patterns, while age has a more significant effect in the least collaboration-intensive field (Natural Resources).
