Abstract: As science and technology advance and many research projects are undertaken by researchers of multiple disciplines, publications by large number of authors are very often seen. However, the dishonorable behavior and the abuse of authorship and contributorship do exist in the publication of academic papers recently. Legal basis and rule of authorship, normal behavior of authorship and co-authorship are introduced in this paper. Adoption of author contribution statement provided with submission of a manuscript is a new method for authorship. The new method is expected to be accepted and used by academic editors and researchers, it is helpful to normalize the behavior of authors and editors, so that the academic corruption can be avoided.

Key words: scientific and technological journals, co-author, contribution, authorship, normalization
