Authorship credit is one of the areas addressed by research integrity. Policies established by graduate academic programs and academic institutions in Puerto Rico are analyzed by describing authorship principles included. Twenty-six percent of the policies specify that students are authors of their research work. Four percent of the policies mention activities that do not qualify a person for author, and only 7% include a statement regarding the process to address authorship disagreement. Implications for institutional policy are discussed. (Contains 2 tables.)
