A 10-question survey was distributed by email to 382 academic professionals involved in biomedical research in order to evaluate their experience with honorific authorship, author displacement, and the perceived validity of the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) requirements. 104 (27%) responded to the survey collected without identifiers. 92% (95/104) were physicians, and 75% (78/104) reported ≥11 publications as co-authors. 68% (69/101) thought honorific authorship was commonly (>20% of the publications) practiced in their workplace and/or research environment. Honorific authorship was perceived as commonly awarded to superiors by 63% (65/104) and to peers by 50% (51/103). Only 36% (37/104) reported rarely (≤5 of the publications) or never being a co-author in a manuscript in which honorific authorship was awarded. 33% (34/103) reported that they commonly experienced co-authors being displaced from their appropriate rank in the sequence of authors due to honorific authorship. Only 31% (32/104) condemned honorific authorship and only 36% (37/104) agreed all four authorship criteria set by the ICMJE should be complied with. Those who condemned honorific authorship more commonly accepted complying with all four ICMJE criteria (18/32 vs. 19/72; p = 0.004). Increasing experience with author displacement was not associated with the condemnation of honorific authorship (p = 0.35).

ICMJE 标准的荣誉作者和批准：带有便利样本的调查

一份包含 10 个问题的调查通过电子邮件分发给了 382 名参与生物医学研究的学术专业人士，以评估他们在荣誉作者身份、作者替换以及国际医学期刊编辑委员会 (ICMJE) 要求的感知有效性方面的经验。104 (27%) 回应了没有标识符的调查。92% (95/104) 是医生，75% (78/104) 报告超过 11 篇出版物作为共同作者。68% (69/101) 认为荣誉作者身份在他们的工作场所和/或研究环境中很常见（> 20% 的出版物）。63% (65/104) 的上级和 50% (51/103) 的同行认为荣誉作者是普遍存在的。只有 36% (37/104) 报告很少（≤ 5 篇论文）或从未成为获得荣誉作者称号的手稿的合著者。33% (34/103) 报告说，他们经常遇到合著者由于名誉作者身份而从作者顺序中的适当排名被取代。只有 31% (32/104) 谴责荣誉作者身份，只有 36% (37/104) 同意应遵守 ICMJE 设定的所有四项作者身份标准。那些谴责名誉作者身份的人更普遍接受遵守所有四个 ICMJE 标准 (18/32与. 19/72；p  = 0.004）。作者流离失所的经验增加与谴责名誉作者无关（p  = 0.35）。
