AI Article Synopsis
- Researchers often think of authorship in terms of moral or ethical rights, which can lead to unethical practices like honorary authorship and authorship trading.
- It's suggested that authorship should be viewed as a reflection of actual contributions to research instead of a right.
- The authors acknowledge that their views are speculative and emphasize the need for more empirical research to understand the implications of viewing authorship as a right.
Article Abstract
Sometimes researchers explicitly or implicitly conceive of authorship in terms of moral or ethical rights to authorship when they are dealing with authorship issues. Because treating authorship as a right can encourage unethical behaviours, such as honorary and ghost authorship, buying and selling authorship, and unfair treatment of researchers, we recommend that researchers not conceive of authorship in this way but view it as a description about contributions to research. However, we acknowledge that the arguments we have given for this position are largely speculative and that more empirical research is needed to better ascertain the benefits and risks of treating authorship on scientific publications as a right.

Institute of Contemporary Psychoanalysis, Los Angeles, CA, USA.
Objective: To reflect on factors that may have led to the widespread implementation of gender affirming care (GAC) for minors by psychiatric clinical leaders despite the absence of a robust evidence base and the known risks of harm.
Conclusions: The progressive rejection of psychodynamic thinking by the profession of psychiatry may have contributed to psychiatrists failing to question key aspects of GAC for minors. Further, numerous unconscious factors potentially contribute to the foreclosure of thinking about the risks of gender medicine.
