The contributions on publication process include the establishment of conception and design, the collection, analysis and interpretation of data, drafting or correction of article and final approval of the paper. Recently, the relationship between researchers becomes more complex because of more numbers of researchers and more co-works with various specialized research fields than before. Authorship is the deciding of roles between authors. It is very important on performing scholarly work in terms of academic and publication ethics. Inappropriate authorship encompasses gift, honorary, ghost, swapping and disguised authorship. Inappropriate authorship often lead legal problem as well as ethic problem or conflict of interest.
