ABSTRACT

The rationality of hormonal calculating method for the precedence of signed authors and the total num-ber of coauthors was elaborated according to the analysis of different allocation methods for the credit weight of coau-thors. It was proposed that the credit weight calculating method of co-first authors, corresponding author and co-corresponding authors should be used as a supplement of hormonal calculating method, and the published papers and their citation frequency should be weighted in order to provide the ideas for revising the present scientific re-search evaluation methods.
