The researchers investigated coauthorship practices, motivations, and ethical applications among clothing and textiles (C&T) researchers. An email invitation was sent to all registered members of the International Textiles and Apparel Association (ITAA) with a URL for accessing the survey. Most of the 80 participants were tenured or tenure‐track faculty members in the United States who had published an average of five coauthored articles in the past 5 years. The findings showed that C&T researchers engaged in coauthorship primarily to improve the overall quality of their work by combining complementary skills and pursuing joint ideas and common interests. The overall contribution to the manuscript was the primary rule that was used to determine the order of listing authors. Although they were generally satisfied with their most recent coauthorship experience, some researchers had experienced problems with inappropriate authorship. The findings of this study suggest the need to formulate guidelines related to coauthorship and order of authorship in publishing research in C&T.

“…Nearly 10% said they had done this with a co-author who made no contribution. A later study by Manton et al (2012) recruited 698 survey respondents, 646 of whom had co-authored at least one paper. 80% knew a colleague who had received a gift authorship (which Zupic and Čater call an honorary authorship).…”

On interference, collegiality and co-authorship: Peer review of journal articles in management and organization studies

Management and organization studies commentary on how authors experience peer review of journal papers suggests it can be an overly interventionist process which reduces the originality and coherence of eventual publications. In the literature on coauthorship, this argument is reversed. Here free riders who do not contribute fully to research collaborations and the practice of gift authorships are problematized; and it is argued that everyone involved in writing a published paper should be rewarded with co-authorship. In this paper, qualitative interviews with twelve management and organization studies academics see respondents describing peer review as a transaction during which reviewers -and editors -actually co-author published papers. But their perspectives on this vary with the subject position from which they are speaking. When they speak as reviewers or editors, this co-authorship is depicted as a collegiate gift, a professional obligation or a process where authors might overrely on reviewers' generosity. When they speak as authors or their proxies, it is characterized as reproducing disciplinary orthodoxy and ethnocentric exclusion, 2 perpetuating disciplinary cliques, creating disorganized papers and constituting excessive interference with authorial privilege. These various perspectives on peer review deserve more attention in our empirical studies of academic labour. They also suggest we should reflect more on when, how and why we collaborate in our research, and on how much we should recognize additional co-authors on (or resist their input into) 'our' work.
