Acknowledgments
At an appropriate place in the article (the title-page footnote or an appendix to the text; see
the journal’s requirements) one or more statements should specify (a) contributions that
need acknowledging but do not justify authorship, such as general support by a
departmental chair; (b) acknowledgments of technical help; (c) acknowledgments of
financial and material support, which should specify the nature of the support; and (d)
relationships that may pose a conflict of interest. Persons who have contributed
intellectually to the paper but whose contributions do not justify authorship may be named
and their function or contribution described — for example, “scientific advisor,” “critical
review of study proposal,” “data collection,” or “participation in clinical trial.” Such persons
must have given their permission to be named. Authors are responsible for obtaining
written permission from persons acknowledged by name, because readers may infer
their endorsement of the data and conclusions. Technical help should be
acknowledged in a paragraph separate from those acknowledging other contributions.
Acknowledgments
List all contributors who do not meet the criteria for authorship, such as a person who
provided purely technical help, writing assistance, or a department chair who provided only
general support. Financial and material support should also be acknowledged. Groups of
persons who have contributed materially to the paper but whose contributions do not justify
authorship may be listed under a heading such as "clinical investigators" or "participating
investigators," and their function or contribution should be described-for example, "served
as scientific advisors," "critically reviewed the study proposal," "collected data," or
"provided and cared for study patients." Because readers may infer their endorsement
of the data and conclusions, all persons must have given written permission to be
acknowledged.
