Authorship
Principles of authorship: All authors whose names appear on the submission adhere to the concept or design of the work; obtaining, analysing or interpreting data; or must have made significant contributions to the creation of the new software used in the study.
Author’s contribution rates should be declared at the end of the article, just before the references. If the authors contributed equally to the article, the statement "Authors declare that they have contributed equally to the article" should be written. If they have made different contributions in accordance with the authorship criteria, the first letters of the authors' names and surnames (for example, T. K.) should be indicated at the end of the cover page.
Sample:
Idea/Concept: ………………………… Design: ………………………. Data collecting: ……………………. Analysis: …………………. Literature review; Writing the article ……………………………… ../ Other: …………………….
If the article has been presented as a notification before, the place and date of the notification should be specified.
Authorship changes: Authors are strongly encouraged to provide the correct group of authors, Corresponding Author, and the order of authors in submission. After the article is accepted, adding or deleting authors, changes in authorship and/or Corresponding Author changes and/or changes in author order are not accepted. Please make sure all authors' names are available and spelled correctly, and addresses and subscriptions are up to date.
Please note that author names will be published exactly as they appear in the accepted submission!
Adding and/or deleting authors is generally not allowed during the revision phase, but exceptions can be made in some cases. The reasons for these changes in authorship should be explained. Approval of the change during revision is at the discretion of the Editor-in-Chief. Please note that journals may have individual policies for adding and/or deleting authors during the revision phase.
