Ghostwriting

Integrity in science is one of its fundamental qualities. Readers must be certain that the authors of publications present their work in a transparent and honest manner, regardless of whether they are direct authors or they have made use of specialized entities (individuals or institutions)

Transparency of information on entities that have contributed to the creation of publications (technical input, material, financial, etc.) attests to researchers’ ethical conduct as well as to high editorial standards, which is a manifestation not only of good manners but also of social responsibility.

Ghostwriting and guest authorship are examples of dishonorable practices. Ghostwriting occurs when someone has made a substantial contribution to a publication without revealing their participation, as one of the authors, or without mentioning their role in the acknowledgments.

Guest authorship (also known as honorary authorship) occurs when the participation of the author is insignificant or non-existing, and his / her name appears at the top of the article.
