Methodology for the implementation of authorship statement
Taxonomy of authorship roles in Spanish is an advanced tool that many international scientific and/or academic publishers are adopting for the management of academic-scientific publication. The use of taxonomy makes collaboration between authors more transparent, and allows clarifying the contribution of each author in the publication.
This taxonomy distributes the roles of participation in 14 typologies through which an author can be recognized in the publication.
Each role is defined as follows:
• Concepts - Ideas; formulation or evolution of the objectives and general goals of the investigation.
• Data curation - Management activities to annotate (produce metadata), debug data, and maintain research data (including software code, where necessary to interpret the data itself) for initial use and subsequent reuse.
• Analysis - Application of statistical, mathematical, computational or other formal techniques to analyze or synthesize study data.
• Acquisition of funds - Acquisition of financial support for the project leading to this publication.
• Investigation - Conducting an investigation and investigation process, specifically conducting the experiments, or collecting data / evidence.
• Methodology - Development or design of the methodology; modeling.
• Project administration - Responsibility for managing and coordinating the planning and execution of the research activity.
• Resources - Provision of study materials, reagents, materials, patients, laboratory samples, animals, instrumentation, computer resources or other analysis tools.
• Software - Programming, software development; computer program design; implementation of computer code and supporting algorithms; test existing code components.
• Supervision - Responsibility for supervision and leadership in planning and executing research activities, including external mentoring to the core team.
• Validation - Verification, either as part of the activity or separately, of the general replicability / reproduction of the results / experiments and other research products.
• Visualization - Preparation, creation and / or presentation of published work, specifically the visualization / presentation of data.
• Writing - original draft - Preparation, creation and / or presentation of the published work, specifically the writing of the initial draft (including the substantive translation).
• Drafting - revision and editing - Preparation, creation and / or presentation of the work published by the members of the original research group, specifically critical review, comment or revision - including the stages before or after publication.
Objective
Establish a standardization for the mention of the roles of authorship contribution in the journals.
Methodology
This identification will be made exclusively for research articles.
The roles of authorship will be identified in the order that appears below, including each author / s in the role / s that correspond, and omitting the roles that do not proceed in each case.
The journal will name the authorship roles as follows regardless of the numbering:

2. Data curation: xxxxxx
3. Analysis: xxxxxx
4. Acquisition of funds: xxxxxx
5. Research: xxxxxx
6. Methodology: xxxxxx
7. Project administration: xxxxxx
8. Resources: xxxxxx
9. Software: xxxxxx
10. Supervision: xxxxxx
