CRediT: Contributor Roles Taxonomy

CRediT: Contributor Roles Taxonomy

Given the growing interest of the research community, academic institutions, funding agencies and publishers to showcase the different contributions in a publication, CASRAI i NISO have developed the taxonomy CREDITS which distinguishes 14 roles or contributions in the development of a work. ANECA recommends the use of this taxonomy. Did you know that it helps to:

  • Simplify verification of contribution types for articles with multiple authors
  • Advancing researchers' careers by recognizing their work
  • Reduce the possibility of disputes between authors
