Journal of Athletic Training Authorship Form Beginning with volume 36 of the Journal of Athletic Training, we will specifically identify the contribution of each author to the manuscript. This is in accordance with the “Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals”: “Authorship credit should be based only on 1) substantial contributions to conception and design, or acquisition of data, or analysis and interpretation of data; 2) drafting the article or revising it critically for important intellectual content; and 3) final approval of the version to be published. Conditions 1, 2, and 3 must all be met. Acquisition of funding, the collection of data, or general supervision of the research group, by themselves, do not justify authorship.” For additional information, please visit the “Uniform Requirements” website: http://www.icmje.org/index.html Therefore, we ask you to please identify the contribution of each author on your manuscript in table below. Please either e- mail the completed table to
[email protected] or fax it to (706) 494-3348. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at (706) 494-3345. Thank you for your assistance.
