Description
CRediT Author Contribution Statements
Most journals now ask authors to describe who did what using the CRediT Contributor Roles Taxonomy. A vague or inconsistent statement can delay acceptance and cause disputes later. We help your team assign the 14 roles accurately and deliver a statement formatted exactly as the journal requires.
What you receive
- Short consultation on each author's actual contribution
- Role mapping across all 14 CRediT roles
- Statement formatted to the target journal's style
- Check of consistency with the authorship list and acknowledgements
How it works
- Send the author list and a brief note on contributions
- We map contributions to CRediT roles and flag any gaps
- You confirm with co-authors
- We deliver the final statement ready to paste into the submission system
Standards we follow
Role assignment follows the CRediT taxonomy and ICMJE authorship criteria, so contributors who do not meet authorship criteria are acknowledged rather than listed.
