Taxonomía CRediT

The CRediT taxonomy, which provides a detailed classification of the various roles performed in the work leading to a published research outcome, promotes transparency in contributions to published works and facilitates improvement in attribution, credit, and accountability systems (Brand et al., 2015).

  1. Conceptualization: Formulation of ideas, objectives, and overall research goals. 
  2. Methodology: Development and/or design of methodology, creation of models. 
  3. Software: Programming and software development, designing computer programs, implementation of code and algorithms, code component testing. 
  4. Validation: Verification of result replicability and reproducibility, experiments, and other research products. 
  5. Formal Analysis: Application of statistical, mathematical, computational, or other procedures to analyze and synthesize data. 
  6. Investigation: Conducting the formal research process, specifically performing experiments or gathering data/evidence. 
  7. Resources: Provision of study materials, reagents, patients, animals, laboratory samples, instruments, computer resources, or other tools for analysis. 
  8. Data Curation: Activities to generate metadata, clean data, and preserve research data for future reuse. 
  9. Writing – Original Draft Preparation: Preparation, creation, and/or presentation of the published work, specifically drafting the initial draft (including translation). 
  10. Writing – Review & Editing: Preparation, creation, and/or presentation of the published work by the original research team members, specifically critical review and comments, including pre or post-publication stages. 
  11. Visualization: Preparation, creation, and/or presentation of the published work, specifically visualizing and presenting data. 
  12. Supervision: Leadership and guidance in planning and executing the research, including advising the principal team. 
  13. Project Administration: Management and coordination for planning and executing research activities. 
  14. Funding Acquisition: Acquisition of financial support for project realization and publication.
