Authorship integrity: A guide for publishers

As submission volumes rise and authorship risks become more complex, how can publishers protect trust in the scholarly record? Explore expert insights, emerging warning signs and practical approaches to assessing authors, reviewers and editors while keeping human judgement at the centre.

How we help you achieve your publishing goals

From safeguarding research integrity to understanding performance and finding new opportunities, publishers need reliable evidence to make informed decisions. Our data and technology help teams shape strategy, support authors and demonstrate impact.

Safeguard research integrity 

Assessing integrity risk across researchers and submissions takes time and careful investigation. Dimensions Research Integrity Suite supports publishers in identifying potential concerns, so teams can investigate further and make informed decisions.

  • Screen authors, reviewers and editors
  • Identify potential citation risks
  • Support consistent integrity assessments
Shape your publishing strategy

Publishing strategy depends on understanding where research is heading and where opportunities lie. Explore funding trends, emerging fields and researcher activity to inform journal scope, plan special issues, identify potential authors and guide decisions about your publishing portfolio.

  • Identify emerging research fields
  • Inform journal scope and special issues
  • Find new journal opportunities
Demonstrate research impact

Citations alone don’t tell the full story of research impact. Analyse citation performance, online attention and influence beyond academia to understand how your publications are performing, compare journals with competitors and demonstrate value to authors and stakeholders.

  • Benchmark journal performance
  • Track attention beyond citations
  • Demonstrate publication impact
Advance open research

Open research creates opportunities for publishers to support transparency and make research outputs more accessible. Understand open access publishing activity, evaluate transformative agreements and help authors share publications and supplementary research outputs.

  • Track open access publishing activity
  • Inform transformative agreement evaluation
  • Support research sharing
Strengthen research collaboration

Finding the right researchers can help publishers build stronger editorial networks and uncover new opportunities. Use research intelligence to identify potential authors, editors, reviewers and collaborators, explore emerging areas of expertise and discover connections across research communities.

  • Identify authors, editors and reviewers
  • Discover relevant research expertise
  • Explore potential collaborations
