Author(s) Contributions
A clear and detailed Author Contributions statement must be included as a separate section in all manuscripts submitted to Research Mosaic (RM). This statement should explicitly outline the specific role of each author in the research process, including, but not limited to, conceptualization, methodology, data collection, data analysis, manuscript drafting, and critical review.
The Acknowledgments section should identify all individuals who have made substantial contributions to the study but do not meet the criteria for authorship.
At the time of manuscript submission, all authors—including the principal author, corresponding author, and co-authors—must provide the following information on the first page of the manuscript:
- Full name
- Email address
- Contact number
- Institutional affiliation
Authors are strongly encouraged to provide their ORCID identifiers to ensure accurate attribution and facilitate indexing.
