Publication Data Analysis: Authorship and CRediT Criteria in PLOS ONE

This data table compiles publication identifiers such as DOI, MAGID, and PMID, along with crucial information. It unveils the diversity of authors' countries of origin, including a harmonized list for easy comprehension. The data also includes the publication date, year of publication, and a categorization of authorship types. This categorization includes "Authorship meets the criteria defined by PLOS ONE" for those adhering to PLOS ONE's criteria, "Authorship by resources" for those attributing authorship through resources, "Not meet authorship criteria" for those not meeting authorship criteria, and finally, "APC ring" for those involved in funding schemes through Article Processing Charges. These data provide an in-depth view of authorship dynamics within the context of scientific publications.
